Welcome! So, you might be wondering .... Why would a Recruiting organization want to create a blog? Let us tell you more: Our intended audience is anyone interested in learning more about Microsoft technologies and career opportunities, but we are most focused on reaching out to those who are industry professionals and interested in pursuing technical/engineering roles at Microsoft. (We are not trying to exclude you college students, but we have a fabulous College Recruiting Team already doing a lot great work in this space. Check out their site for more information!) Our goal is to not only educate you on happenings, new technologies, and best practices at Microsoft but also put a “face” to Microsoft Recruiting. We promise we aren;t a black hole! You are encouraged to contact any of the recruiters you see profiled on this blog, and we promise to respect confidentiality and privacy. Topics you;ll see on our blog will include: Subjects you want covered. These entries could range from new Microsoft products to engineering best practices to … well, just about anything. It;s up to you! Let us know what you;d like to read either by posting a comment or sending us an e-mail. Entries by guest columnists. We hope to enlist Microsoft experts who don;t already share their information with the community via a blog to write entries here … so the information you read on our blog is hot off the presses! (MS employees interested in submitting a post can also e-mail us.) Explanation of technical careers Microsoft. What do people really do at Microsoft? What does a “typical” career path look like? What can you do to prepare yourself for a career at Microsoft? Sharing of our recruiting expertise. Learn “trade secrets” from Microsoft recruiters! What does a good resume look like?
