I am an in-house counsel with 4+ years (~7 years legal) of experience in commercial contracts and privacy. I’ve been interviewing to move for higher salary at other SaaS companies. I’ve done ~30ish interviews at this point over 2 years and have not landed anything. Should it be this hard? Am I interviewing poorly or is the job market just tough? Come from TT/TTT top 20%.

What should I do? Guidance please!!!

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.

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?
