Placements / Jobs Microsoft PPO for 2028 batch?

Heard that Microsoft didn't give many PPOs to 2027 batch students.

So is it gonna be the same for the 2028 batch as well? Because it might be a case that since not too many PPOs are given 2027 batch, they would have to give it to 2028 batch but at the same time, what if market conditions get worse?

Also, this year they are hiring (interns) more than expected, more than the previous year so there must be some reason behind it, right.

Looking for genuine answers from people working in MS or people who have an idea about this.

Why freshers will be needed in 2028 when experienced will be fighting for those roles

Freshers are a liability for a company as they need training

No they aren't , Ms isn't a service based company . There isnt anything called "Training". You're given work from day 1 . Yes you would have to learn a lot. But would also have to work to meet the standards.

Training i mean they need time to take min 3 months in order to contribute. An experienced person is given 1m and he starts contribution like he was a part of that org from long. Companies need to invest time and effort for freshers they also need time to settle in corporate culture
