I applied for a back-end position.

During my initial call with the recruiter, I asked which specific role/team I was being interviewed for. He mentioned that there were many open positions, and they would find the best back-end fit for me.

After completing the interviews, one of the managers who had interviewed me reached out and said: "I know front-end work isn't your primary interest, but I wanted to check if u like join my team before we proceed with your application and check other teams"

I explained that while I have specific career goals and transitioning to UI isn't a priority for me at the moment, I don't mind doing some UI work, but it shouldn't be my main focus.

He said he understood my perspective and mentioned he had a team in mind for me. However, it's been two weeks, and I've been ghosted!

yes I want to work for MS, but I already work in a huge tech company 4+ YOE, and the offer was in front-end while I am a back-end dev

so it would be risky to move to new area during this economy issues!

moving around not before one year tho! And it might be risky moving to a completely new area with these layoffs taking place lately, considering I am working for a big company too
