YOE? YOE required for the 6 roles?
There’s no way you’d get red flagged unless you did something like renege or get terminated in the past. Have you ever worked there?
Sounds like, unfortunately, the typical recruiting process at most places.

No I have never worked at Microsoft before and neither was I ever offered a role.

Then it’s probably just bad luck or you don’t meet the requirements for the roles. Referrals don’t do much beyond get you past an automated screening at certain places.
Try reaching out to HMs or recruiters on LinkedIn directly that list that they’re hiring.
