Interviewed with Microsoft 2 weeks ago. Still haven’t heard back and no response from the recruiter after emailing. Assuming they have chosen a diff candidate - seems unprofessional they didn’t call?

I’d hold off on that nasty email. Microsoft is notoriously slow with hiring. Often, recruiters don’t want to respond until they have something of substance to say.

Follow up: tempted to send a nasty email to the recruiter...yet don’t want to burn bridges even tho I feel by them not calling me is them burning bridges with me anyways.

Again, it’s fair to ask for updates but what’s the point of saying “I think it’s unprofessional”?

Forgot to mention it was a final round interview and they said I would hear back about the decision within 1-2 days. Additionally angry bc I drove an hour+ and took off a full day of work for the 5 hour interview process.

I got a verbal at a FAANG and it took forever to get the written. Just relax and be patient.

Did you ever hear back? I am on the exact same boat, HM told me 2-3 days in the interview that I would hear back. Have been past 3 weeks now still no results.

For folks exiting to FAANG / Product at start ups or really any hot company. How do you go about networking to get the interview? Do you apply then cold email someone you may have an “in”with, or are you picking say 10 companies and then having warm contacts there that you’ll ping when you see a job. I’ve been passively looking for jobs but zero luck, I only want to leave for the right fit. Big 4 here so feel my brand won’t auto get me an interview like mbb/t2
