In April, I interviewed with Microsoft for a hiring event (TPM I/II). The team reached out and said I had positive reviews, but I have been put on the Talent Plus pool as I did not match with the participating team. I am now working with a recruiter to find a team match with hiring managers. If any Microsoft Hiring Manager on Blind is hiring, it would be great to have a conversation and see if we are a match! Hoping to get a remote role, but open to all opportunities. Thank you #pm #programmanager #microsoft
Wow! I was told that I passed the interview and I will hear back soon. It has been 3 wks lol
How do you get into these hiring events?
Honestly, just follow a bunch of recruiters on LinkedIn and keep a keen eye out. They'll post about events (virtual and in person) and you have to jump on that as soon as you see it, because they'll keep it open for a little while then select folks from there. You can also see which larger events they are going to (South By Southwest, etc.), but of course it could cost a lot of money to attend those. In this market though, meeting hiring managers and recruiters in person is huge, so something to consider!
Thank you
