Sign it's not meant to be?

I planned to apply to Amazon, LinkedIn and Facebook. Linked in recruiter messaged me first then he never responds to multiple messages on LinkedIn. I emailed Amazon recruiter whomI spoke to earlier this year and the email bounced. Time to give up?

Never give up. Maybe you need to update your LinkedIn to include your most recent skills, then try reaching out to different recruiters. Good luck!

Keep on applying online!! Also, search for company specific recruiters on LinkedIn and message them. I got calls from couple of recruiters like this only.

Keep trying but it sounds like you need to play “hard to get” a little bit. Make sure your profile is up to date and is truthful but paints you in the best light.

Never give up, and make sure you are ready when you do get the opportunity to interview

Thanks! Good to know helpful people on this app. Facebook is actually talking to me and I have a referral. Just don't want to go up vs Facebook with no competing offers.

Amazon recruiters often start out as temp, and afaik, till a few months ago, when they convert to full time, their email address changes. They "archive" the old email id and funnel it somewhere to be looked at. Just reach out to folks in your network and get them to refer you, that is the best way to get your foot in the door.
