Anyone here at Microsoft? Interviewed for a role and they said they'd love to hire me but I wasn't a fit for the role I interviewed for so they would put me in the talent plus pool. What's the likelihood I get a role?

I interviewed for a role and went upto 8 rounds with Microsoft and they told me I would be best suited for another role that might open in few weeks. They opened the role and offered me. Very time consuming process if you are good to wait. Like 3-4 months.

+1. You might get a role, but if you do it will take a while. The talent plus pool is like being put in a hold pattern until a position opens up and your qualifications ping their system as a match.

I don't mind waiting. Do you have to re interview?

I did not have to reinterview as it was with the same team and role opened in 2 weeks.

Any SE's here currently at Snowflake? I'm about to start an interview process with them (already had a phone screen with the hiring manager). I'd love to get some insight into the day to day of SEs there, especially on the enterprise team. I'm a former Oracle SE with experience in data management and analytics and I'm currently at a small SaaS company helping build out the pre-sales function as the second hire (because the first got whisked away to product management after 8 months haha).

Wondering what I should do.

Hi sharks,
I had appeared for an interview in juniper networks a couple of weeks ago, two rounds were successful and HR called back. She asked for the expected CTC and i conveyed my expectations. She said she will get back to me after the approval for numbers from senior management. It will take 2-3 days.

That was the last week. I don't have her mail ID, because all incoming mail from juniper are auto mails. But their career portal shows status as "selected for offer" suggestions please.

I chose $175k / 0.11% because $10k difference in the cash offer felt not worth the potential upside of more equity. It’s a risk but time will tell. Bad idea / paycut (15k)?

For context I have 3 yoe in Data/BI, 3 consulting. Is this a good offer? Help Eval!
