How is the housing and rental market in Dallas? I assume that housing market must be down as some desis might be selling before leaving the country and other putting their houses on rent before leaving because of ongoing layoffs and people being on h1b visas. What are you seeing if you are living in Dallas? Do you think it will become worse in the coming months?

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?
