INFO: Resources for a Career with Microsoft | Kurt Shintaku's Blog

I joined Microsoft in 1995 (Los Angeles) but I actually interviewed for positions in 1989 (Redmond) & 1992 (Irvine) coming out of high school & college respectively. Each involved 6 interviews & lasted all day & while my persistence was what eventually got me into Microsoft, I kinda always wondered what would have happened had I’d gotten one of the other jobs I interviewed for.

I stole the following guidance from Microsoft’s South Regional VP Mary Carol Alexander because it was so good. I wish these resources had been around in the late 80’s.

Calling all soon or recent graduates… sharing some awesome resources if you’re interested in a career with Microsoft. I made the leap 7 years ago and always wish I had done it sooner.
