I gave the Azure Hiring event interview on 4/24. 1 week later my recruiter sent a cryptic email - ""Hope you are doing well and staying safe! Thank you so much for your patience as we come to a decision on our end after your last interview with us – I apologize for the delay, the process is taking a bit longer than usual as a result of the current state of affairs. Moving forward, I’d like to introduce and connect you with *Name Hidden*, one of our Azure-aligned recruiters and who will be handling the offer decision for you and can help answer any questions that you may have from here on out! Thank you once again for your patience! "" I am not able to decode what does this mean. My application status shows "Your Interviews are underway" #offer #career #microsofthiring #microsoft
Seems good sign. Which location and how many rounds were there?
Redmond, 4 virtual interviews after 1 coding assessment
I think they are experiencing delays in general. I recently had an interview with them and it took 2 weeks to move on to the next stage. I'm now waiting for onsite results. It's been 2 days in so far.
That's weird, last on-site I did we put out the offer the day after. I guess it means somebody hasn't updated the feedback in the system yet. Or the AA is getting everyone together to make a decision.
Can I DM you for your interview experience?
Sounds like an offer. They usually transfer you to other recruiter if you have an offer and they will be the one to communicate with you moving forward
New email from the recruiter. Don’t know what to expect or what is going on
That likely means you have been rejected and are dropped down in the list of priorities.
DId you end up getting offer?
Not yet. No updates from recruiter. He just told that he will reach out via phone soon.
Op That action center message means you will get your offer soon. Microsoft does it with everyone
Are you sure? Lot of other folks also have the same message in their online application status. For me it was interview Scheduling until about a week after my on site interviews. It changed to “Your Interviews are currently underway. Good luck!” The timestamp of the update is still quite old.
I had same message for a week before getting the offer
Seems like a good sign
