Microsoft explain

How can I get a job at Microsoft as a new grad? I went to a really small university so recruiter doesn't look at my profile. I am told that referrals also don't work. Wht to do πŸ€”?

Work for a yr or two for some other companies. And recruiters might ping you.

But I want to work there now. Also, I have onsite with Amazon soon. How much relocation bonus do they really give?

I went to a small university as well. LinkedIn is your friend. A recruiter saw my LinkedIn profile and sent me an interview invitation.

I went to a small uni even by the standards of midwest. I have lined up interviews at Amazon, Bloomberg and Dropbox, but Microsoft always seem to elude me. What should I do? Should I message all microsoft recruiter on Linkedin?

No, there's likely a recruiter assigned to your region. Find that recruiter.

Just my personal opinion but I don’t think MSFT is a good place for new grads. I ended up turning down their offer. Go there to rest and vest when you’re older.

@ngradzuc - Microsoft that you know does not exist anymore.
