I think your ok. I wish I could just get an interview. I hear they are still hiring like crazy but no movement from the recruiters I have talked with. I have heard they are overwhelmed with the amount they are trying to hire, but who knows. They have won some big contracts lately on the fed side and I think the commercial side is really firing on all cylinders too
Update: Recruiter finally replied to me after another email. He mentioned that in this case, the hiring manager’s schedule was extremely busy and he couldn’t attend “as appropriate” interviews for any of the candidates. He also mentioned the team should come to a decision tomorrow and he’ll inform me by the end of the day. Fingers crossed!
Good luck. I have had a ton of MSFT recruiters reach out to me now but they back off when they hear another recruiter sent me a screen 3 weeks ago. When I ask the recruiter that did the screen she says she hasn't heard back from any hiring managers she sent my info to. I also no heard from more than one person that Microsoft is in a hiring lull right now (compared to the rest of the year) and they are anticipating a huge increase in a month or so.
have u considered reaching out to the recruiter?
August is particularly a popular month for vacation at Microsoft.. I work for a client there
