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?
December layoffs anywhere?

You do what you have to do to pay the bills
Or get laid
Depends on the situation. I understand in her case because the entire group was laid off. If she was targeted because she was pregnant (even under the guise of performance based) then I would suspect she would have thought twice about coming back.
If I needed a job and they were hiring, then yeah, I would.
Yes but I would negotiate the highest pay as if I will not be on partner track. I don't personally know a single boomerang who came back to my firm at a SM level in my office and who was then promoted to partner. (I do know boomerangs who came back as a partner.) So if I were her, I would negotiate EVERY year for my pay.
No if she just wanted to pay the bills I would have gone to private for higher pay and work life balance for the kids. Seems to be chasing partner track imo
