I’ve gotten a referral for Microsoft. They sent me an email that the referral was officially in and they would contact me soon. It’s been around a month, is this normal? I feel I could really be a great fit if I could just get an interview. Any experience with Microsoft? Thanks
Sounds about right.
Referrals at Microsoft are black holes
Depends, I got referred then got contacted by a recruiter. Then six months later got an interview and luckily got an offer. Your name is in the system, so it helps a bit, but no guarantees. Good luck!
Does the person you're getting a referral from have anything to do with the position you're applying for? There seems to be some correlation with the hiring manager recognizing the name of the person who referred you.

I tried to refer a few people and none of them got any call from HR.
