ya3 - yeah, interns get paid + get most of their other expenses taken care of.

gary, are you guys looking for interns next year haha? Also, G is probably working in the UK. If I get a free trip to the MS location in the UK in order to deliver his coffee, I’m all up for it!

That’s an awesome internship. Congratz.

I visited Bill’s house while it was under construction, which was like 8 years ago. He may be living somewhere different now. The one I visited had a salmon run in the backyard, and a room that was nothing more than a giant trampolin!. I’m guessing his kids have grown up so he may have gotten rid of it, who knows.

G - oh no, I had two interviews. One on-campus 30 minute interview, then a 7-8 hour on-campus interview in Seattle 🙂

I really don’t know if I will be on a developer team or whether I will divide my time between PM’ing and writing code. It depends I guess (-:

Congrats Kirupa. Now if a few more members try and get a job at Microsoft we may eventually take over. Then we can change the name to Kirupasoft!

I had 3 seperate days that I as interviewed on - phone interview (45 mins), normal interview (about an hour) then last one was the full assessment day thing which went on for about hours, included whiteboard questions, 3 interviews, group excercise, presentation and questions (me doing th presentation) then one more interview.

Hey K Man I hear they throw out trips to USA MS office all the time so I’ll def put myself forward for that…but I’ll have to leave pretty quick if I’m to catch you in your 12 weeks ☹

Sounds like you’ll be in some kind of testing role from the sounds of it…didn’t tehy tell you when they rang you??

This is what I will be doing: [[U]http://www.microsoft.com/college/ip\_pm.mspx[/U]](http://www.microsoft.com/college/ip_pm.mspx) The project itself though, I only have a brief overview of what I will be doing within the .net CLR group. The technical details of which, though, I will find out once I get there.
