"Blue Team" vs "Red Team"

I am currently working on a SOC as an intern (I have 1 year experience). After a year, I want to change and move to the red team. I've heard that in order to work in a "Red Team" I need a lot of experience.

Tomorrow, I have an interview for an internship in a "Blue Team". If I get the job, is it a step forward in my goal to be a pentester or is it a step back? …
