Why Microsoft?
Millions of professionals globally have adapted to the remote working model. And as the boundaries between work & personal life blur, it made way for women, who were on a career break, to return to being professionals. At Microsoft, we understand how challenging it could be for a woman to make re-entry into the tech industry's ever-changing landscape. So, we create opportunities for them to return and make an impact.
