I’ve gotten two messages from internal Amazon Retail recruiters via LinkedIn about “exciting opportunities” over the past year.

My LinkedIn profile clearly shows I work at AWS…

I've started getting very firm with them. I respond to each email with "no thank you, also stop contacting me, also here's the last person I asked to stop contacting me, but who didn't." We'll see how long it works, if at all, but after 3 separate Amazon recruiters contacted me last month I was fed up.

Amazon is getting ridiculous. I get an email from them almost every day

Just wait till you get a cold text from them.

For me: Linkedin inmail->email->cold text within 3 minutes.

When I told the guy that was pretty unprofessional. His response "it's just text mate".

Escalated to jeff at amazon. That got his attention pretty quickly.

I still get recruiters trying to recruit me to amazon.
