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?
Larsen & Toubro Infotech Is it good time to join Cognizant now for Coimbatore location considering too much attrition in recent times along with many policy changes and do they have enough projects or will there be any chance of layoffs if we don't find any projects for our skill(Tableau in my case)? I have another offer with LTI, Coimbatore for same salary but i prefer CTS more than LNT. Cognizant Larsen & Toubro Infotech

Reach out to people you’ve worked with in the past and ask for referrals and potential leads for opportunities. Go to networking events as much as you can. And set up Google Boolean search alerts for new job postings in your field. The competition is fierce so it’s best to get your application in the first 24-48 hours
No, AI application bots don’t work.
Use your network! Referrals will be your best tool in your toolkit. Get people to make sure your application is at the top of the list
At MBB, my friend used Refero.io. I think it’s like $70/ a month, but she said she got like 20 interviews in 3-4 weeks and found the role she’s leaving for
I was you a couple of days ago and i felt a HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF!!!
I have a friend that is in tech recruiting. He warned me away from mass AI application models. The trouble with them is that they blast your resume everywhere and so if you don’t get traction and you decide you want to work with a recruiter, the odds of them being to help you are low since you’ve likely already dumped your resume onto most of the opportunities they might have for you.

Referrals seem to be the best way to actually get your resume in front of someone. Reach out to your network! Or people on LinkedIn at hiring companies. Many have referral bonuses and people are happy to refer.
I feel the name of the game is networking with your current and previous colleagues. I do not believe any of the AI sites are helpful especially at the per/month rates..
I have found a few that were exactly the same look and feel. Some clever people probably used AI to create a website with a subscription service to scrape all of the big job boards and just simply do a LIKE search and send the results to you.
I saw a similar situation with military style workout app and AI investing app...crazy times.
