Amazon must have a very decentralized recruiting methodology because I've been contacted by recruiters for Alexa at least 4 times.

It seems like Alexa, Go, and AWS have massive staffing targets based on my interactions w/ recruiters.

Yes, every group in Amazon has its own recruiters who largely find candidates independently. However, Amazon does have a good central database of everybody who is contacted, who last talked with them, what happened with the contact, etc. And they're usually pretty good about having only one group active with a candidate at a time.
