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?

We know the strategies and tactics to influence across various influence vectors. So yes, we in marketing, PR, and advertising are part of the issue.
Hard to argue we’re not as a whole, but we’re not the cause imo.
Parents are the problem for allowing their children to be glued to phones, not marketers. Phone / social media addiction starts in the home.

Not the cause entirely, but part of the problem? Definitely. Marketing is not the primary source of this short form content, I would argue influencers are worse
I'd say we could be considered part of the problem. The shortening of attention spans goes back quite some time, there were people saying videos on MTV were making people stupid. (In fairness some of them probably did.) I suppose we're participants in the problem, but there's no easy way out. We need to engage the audience where they are and how they want to be engaged.
Not really. Marketing reflects human nature. We don't really decide what gets popular, we just reflect it in our work.
