I completed my set of interviews for a microsoft interview on 22 Aug. Haven't heard back from Recruiter. Dropped a follow up email a week back. No response. Do the Microsoft recruiters ghost you if not selected? A friend working there said last week the Hiring Manager was out of office and I should hear from Recruiter this week but that also passed with no response. Not sure if there is any hope of me clearing the interview.

Tbh, recruiters ghost quite a bit even if you are selected they take their own time

Hey
Did you recieve any update from the company after that?

Oh ok. I was hoping for a bit more transparency, but looks like it's a slow moving process. Will continue to wait for the outcome. Thanks.

Also is it ok if I send another followup to the Recruiter? Last email was 9 days back. Don't want to sound too desperate but also wondering if she might give me some updates this time around?

That’s not great to be honest. Usually if it’s an issue with vacation (which many take before the new FY) you’d at least get a heads up from the recruiter or hiring manager. It could be they’re still evaluating a number of internal and external candidates and they’re not communicating anything. The process does take time and it’s only been a few weeks post interview so hang tight.
