Amazon is a very decentralized company. Which means that Amazon's thousands of recruiters are all operating independently of each other, and have minimal systems/regulations to prevent multiple recruiters contacting the same person. The different recruiters are often recruiting for different teams/divisions as well, so if you're open to joining Amazon, you should certainly talk to a recruiter whose team matches your interests.

Most all tech companies treat recruiting as an after thought, you would think this Trillion dollar companies would try to use their technological leverage to make recruitment more efficient but no…
I'll say this. I went to FB and AMZN interviews and hiring committee. While leetcode style isn't my favorite, the process at both companies are outstanding. It was transparent, quick and never any pushy sales tactics. I personally couldn't see myself working for them so I took less money to go elsewhere.
Microsoft totally could with their ownership of LinkedIn + GitHub. Why haven't they?
