Microsoft what is going on? I got a request for an interview. I filled out the information n deed for the next steps. I have yet to hear back and it’s been two weeks. I called the recruiter to follow up and she said she will get back to me same day. Still haven’t heard anything. I haven’t been pass over for the job, but I am also not sure what’s going on with the next steps. Can anyone at Microsoft shine some light on what they think is going on?

I want to also know if I should call again or just give it some more time. Any insight helps.

Large companies like MS get literally 100's of thousands of applications per year. I recently got a request for an interview for a FAANG and the interview didn't happen until a month later.

If they said they'd get back to you then I suggest you give then 2 business days (since their response) and try again. However, they are going to move at their own pace and there isn't a lot you can do.

Thanks for that insight.

Hey

Hello

Don’t know what’s going on in your situation but recruiting can take a long time. We typically make people go through a lot of interviews and we typically bring in a lot of people to interview for a role. Took me about 2.5 mos from beginning to end with interviews and background checks. I think it’s pretty normal that you haven’t heard back yet. Microsoft moves at a snails pace, when hiring external candidates.

If you haven’t heard back yet, there’s likely a reason. Be patient. If you’re truly a qualified applicant, they’ll get to you, it’ll probably just take a bit longer for a company of that size.

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.

I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.

a) applying from Ca will actually get my application tossed out the window
b) I've heard there are gazillion ppl applying so if referral gets me on the radar, instead wasting time just find someone to refer me?

I have 5-6 YOE and have been in an Account Management role for most of my career - is it worth making the switch to PMM at a smaller firm or sticking with what I know at a FAANG? Both would have relatively similar comp. Thanks in advance for your input!
