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?
Anyone hearing noise about layoffs?

In the beginning you think about it but then you just move on and build yourself up. Everyone has been in the situation once or twice before. Its not ok for these thoughts to take over especially when you are out to find a new beginning at another company! Go for walks reach out to colleagues network and find a much better job!
That's really good advice, thank you!
I feel like people pity me more than anything. Like being laid off was some inevitable for me and it is a sign that my life is not going well and I am a failure generally speaking. At least that is what I see in peoples eyes when I tell them I was laid off.
That's how I feel too! I have not been without work since I was 17...so gainfully employed for over 15 years. But it didn't stop my mom from making a comment at a family dinner making me sound like a charity case.
