That was a fun little tremor last night...
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?

It’s not you versus them, it’s you against yourself. What the other person is doing really has little impact on your own journey, it’s only your own decisions that you have full control of that will determine the measure of your success. And frankly spending the extra energy worrying about what the other person is doing is really only you sabotaging your own progress when you could have spent that effort investing in yourself instead.
When you see someone else with something you want, the only thing that’s really in your control is changing your own circumstances to go after that thing, and sitting around resenting them for having it isn’t going to change or do anything.
