Need referral from MSFT /SWE

Grinding LC, devouring all the courses and books I can find on sys design. Started my career when I was around 16. I filed a patent and started working on decentralized systems 2 years ago. Founded a startup and now employing 6 juniors. Currently majoring CS and Maths, top of my class. I can send you my resume. I started freelancing when I was 15, met with amazing people, dealt with the worst too. I slowly feel like I'm burning out because I'm not doing any meaningful work and I'm also not receiving enough compensation for it. Im still managing this startup and I don't think I can take full-time jobs, but I'm open to part-time and internships. I developed and shipped products on areas such as AI, DL, IoT. Won some international competitions here and there using Unity and UE4. Mainly worked as a back-end engineer but got a good grasp of Fullstack since I was expected to develop complete products most of the time. I was also a Community Moderator for 4 years at TechNet and Microsoft Answers, and received MCC award with a title of Community Manager. I was a BizSpark and Microsoft Partner, supported and worked with many companies. In fact Microsoft support line forwarded calls directly to my landline. I was 15 back then. Also open to any kind of suggestions about career. Current TC: 25k (excluding freelance since it's not full-time) Yoe: ~5 years Location: Turkey I would appreciate your comments, thanks ๐Ÿ˜Š

Are you still in school? If not, you won't get any internship at MSFT. What would it take for you to take on a FT job?

Yes, I'm still at school. In fact I'm 22 now. I can consider a FT job 4-5 months from now on, right now I'm waiting for the product launch. That's it.

Do you have an internship position you've seen online that you'd want a referral for? I'm not yet aware of positions in my group.
