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?

It would be a good idea to do as much research as you can on the company and its products, just so you'd be able to talk about them fluently. You don't want to come off like a nerdy Pandora superfan, but being informed will reflect well on you. Beyond that, try to get across the idea that you're reliable and personable, those are really the traits that can matter most in retail.
Thank you so much !
I would encourage you to familiarize yourself with the brand as much as possible. Share your knowledge, share your favorite pieces, talk about what jewelry means to you and why it's important to know the product and how to talk to people. It's such a fun job!
thank you!
They see everything they sell as part of the buys story. So if your dad fished mom was a florist. You might be looking for something to fit that. You could be helping someone make one for wedding memories.
thank you!
I loved my time at Pandora, and it was what took me into the high end jewelry world. I think expressing your passion & excitement for the brand & the opportunity will take you a long way. Passion goes a long way nowadays!
