Microsoft on campus hiring

I arranged employee referrals from Microsoft , Visa , Arcesium , Walmart but no response came not even rejection its almost 1 month. Is there any other trend prevailing in market? Or more precisely Am I approaching in the wrong way?

For the coming cycle, are Google and Microsoft planning to hire interns or FT freshers from on-campus recruitment? Microsoft did a aggressive intern hiring last time. Google went on freeze quite early on. Have things changed in terms of hiring interns and freshers?

I'm saying this because Microsoft has posted more than 240 software engineering jobs in India in just the last month, bringing the total to 547 software engineering jobs in India alone. However, despite this large number of job postings, I haven't seen a single new employee announcement on LinkedIn for any of these positions. Does nobody want to join Microsoft, or what?

Can Any employees of microsoft comment ?... Will microsoft start hiring for fresher (2023 grad) . When we can expect Microsoft hiring ?

Microsoft recently started hiring TPMs from engineering colleges like IITs and NITs. What are the chances that they will hire those interns as full-time TPMs by giving a PPO? Also, in case they don't, how good does TPM intern at Microsoft look on resume while applying for FT roles? PS: the TPM interns of this summer (2023) were the first batch to be hired like that.

Amazon denied a lot of really great peeps a chance at PPO and to a very few they have told you looked really good, we might reach out to you soon Societe Generale gave PPO to almost everyone who they took from our college(30+) List down other places you know

I have been interviewing with Microsoft since late March 2024, possibly for an SE2 position. There is no HR involved. Engineers/Managers from Washington and Hyderabad call me or email me and schedule my interviews. Round 1 (Mar last week): Technical Round 2 (Apr first week): Technical Round 3 (Apr 2nd week): Technical Round 4 (Apr last week): HM Surpisingly, there is a round 5. Round 5 (May second week): Technical/HM My 5th interviewer said that there is going to be a 6th round of interview as well, by the manager of 5th interviewer. He also said, "Hoping that we will work together soon." As of the date of writing this post, my 5th interview was almost 3 weeks ago. I asked my 5th interviewer for an update and I got a response saying: "Sorry for the delayed response. I was so busy with many work items. At the moment we are on hold and we will reach out to you once we have the confirmation." After my 3rd round of interview, there was a gap of 2 weeks as well, and upon aksing my 3rd round of interviewer about an update of my candidature, he told me something similar. It did upset me but I did have a 4th round as well. Given Microsoft is hiring a lot right now, I feel confused why my candidature is on hold. I feel very frustrated and desperate for the offer. Because I am new to this, I would appreciate if anyone here, can help me with their experience ,what could be going on? PS: All my interviewes were extreamly well.

Is it just me or everyone's LinkedIn feed is filled with Microsoft SDEs hiring posts from their current employees, from the past week?
