Why Pronouns shit captured US ? I don’t see this anywhere else
I am on an interview process at Microsoft. I heard that MS is planning a hiring freeze from March 31. Is this correct? If so, how long MS is planning the freeze? #microsoft
Wrong info
Microsoft seems well placed for this. I'd be surprised to hear they need a hiring freeze.
My org is hiring aggressively. There is no freeze.
I don’t think so. I recently attended one. Microsoft is just copying Amazon hiring process. So until Amazon stops Microsoft won’t. That’s what I have been hearing. Not not sure about facts. What I see is that MS requires a lot engineers.
Wow! They did freeze hiring! How did you know it so early???
Is there a hiring freeze yet in MS? I was going thru interviews last month and suddenly recruiter stopped contacting me, even though some interviews were over. And didn't hear a no, so could it be because of hiring freeze? What happens if they reopen hiring after a few weeks? Do people like me who cleared few rounds have to start again from zero?
The earnings just came out and they seem to be doing great without much risk to the downside. Revenue is increasing at a rate they would be unable to spend at. Only reason they will keep hiring frozen at this point is to keep costs even lower and use the excuse for the virus to close open headcount requisitions, otherwise it does not make any sense to keep this freeze going for too long. I got a great offer which was subsequently pulled back, unfortunately it was a contract role. Assuming they wouldn't do that to full time candidates. Hoping for some good news soon.
Just did an interview today and am going another tomorrow. No idea where you heard that.
How was your system design round? Happy with the tool?
I was giving the interview lol. Sorry for the confusion.
