The Road to Rehire program is currently on pause.
We will reactivate the program when appropriate.

The Microsoft Alumni Network together with Microsoft has created a direct “Road to Rehire” for Microsoft Alumni Network members who are seeking engineering roles in the U.S., EMEA and India. Plus, there’s now direct access for sales and marketing positions in the U.S.

In 2019, more than 10 percent of Microsoft's hires were boomerangs. If you have gained new experiences and skills in the areas listed above, you now have direct access to recruiters in each region who are dedicated to rehiring. 

Here’s what you do:

  • Check out available jobs at https://careers.microsoft.com & copy the link of the job posting you are interested in to help the talent sourcers connect you.
  • Update your LinkedIn profile.
  • Complete the Road to Rehire form below and share your interests.
