Is it normal for Amazon recruiters to reach out to you regarding SWE positions? I’ve received a couple messages on LinkedIn about some openings, but considering the fact that I’m still a junior developer I’m not sure if they’re legit or scams.

They reach out constantly. Just wait til they find your email address

Yeah a little too much. I get 2-3 emails from different AWS recruiters every week

likesmart

Yes, I get emails from them all the time, even though I tell every single one that I'm not interested in working for Amazon and they should tell their colleagues not to contact me.

I actually looked up whether I could take them to small claims court over not stopping when I told them to. The harassment laws i was thinking about only apply to telemarketers, though, not recruiters :/

They are legit. Sometimes they give you time to study. For the coding interview.

I wonder what the outreach quota for these Amazon recruiters are Because I don’t see other FAANG’s doing this much outreach.

My personal observation:
Most of these Amzn recruiters have started at AMZN < 6months. Seemingly, they have targets to meet (like fill up X positions by Y quarters) & so, they are frantic.

On the other hand, if an Amzn Senior recruiter (atleast >1year at amzn) reaches out, they also mention that the hiring manager reviewed your profile & that are looking to know more. They are legit interested in your experience.

helpful

Ditto.

tbf, I was receiving just as many Meta msgs until this past April or so.

It’s legit. If you have at least a year of experience, you can be considered for an L4 role.

They reach out all the time causes they churn through people.
