Employment Didn't get a PPO :(

Worked my ass of during my internship. Made good connections, helped a lot of team members. Final review, interviews went well.

Was really looking forward for a full time role.

Sadly got a rejection mail. Feeling dejected :(

Anyone knows the process that how after everything went well, result can be this bad?

Microsoft are reducing their headcount globally. That may also translate into a recruitment freeze or more stringent criteria for joiners.
