This is what happened. The recruiter reached out to me for some hiring event. She canceled twice. Both times I had to WFH or take some time away from work. The last time she canceled was after I waited 10 mins and pinged her. The response was classic. You are too senior for the job posting and ill keep your resume on file if there are opportunities that are suitable for you. Microsoft hiring community - At least have some decency to treat other's time with respect.
There is a reason why your hiring process has got a bad reputation.

J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (San Jose, CA)
Entretien
Started with a recruiter phone call and a 30 minute phone call with the hiring manager to negotiate a remote role since the job was based in Seattle and the manager agreed. Following up with five rounds of virtual on site. Four of them are coding/design. One of them is behavioral mostly leetcode medium level questions which I finished and I was able to do all the follow up and answer the design and time complexity questions correctly after the interview got ghosted for a whole month and got an automatic rejection email.
