PhD student graduating soon with 7 top publications and four FAANG-level internship experience. Is it possible to ask for a Level 62 head start at MSFT?
Is your company real?
Yes, of course.
61 maybe. Doubtful of 62
I don't think so, but I guess anything is possible
Yes, I know someone joined as 63. But you have to pass MSR hire bar
I joined as a 62 with no experience
Joined as 64 with phd from top school. Now feel like should have joined as 65
I have a friend who joined as 60 with phd
Research scientist?
If you are not in research, those 7 publications are just a bunch of text. The 4 internship might land you above entry level. But is that enough for Lvl 62, that is near senior level.
