Get a cheap external camera if you’re worried

You can. Sometimes my accounts mix up and my official email or Name (Company Name) shows up on work laptops. But apart from that, no issue.
I would say get an external HD webcam and hook it up to your personal laptop and you’re golden.

Buy a good camera on amazon for like $50..

Realistically, it is unlikely you will be caught and fired. But is the risk worth it? Let's say the risk is 5%. What is more valuable: 5% of your annual salary times half (assuming it takes you 6 months to find a job after being fired), or a $30 webcam off Amazon? Even if the risk is 1%, I assume buying a webcam is still worth it.

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
