I thought I would take a chance to chronicle what the application, interview, offer, and hire process has been like in my case. Over that time frame I have been sharing some of the milestones for my initial onboarding process over social media. It has been a lot of fun since announcing the news a couple of weeks ago. By the way, this observation doesn’t even include the awesome welcome I have been getting from the Microsoft Q&A team which I am joining. It really feels like a family in the manner in which I am being welcomed. It also shows me why Microsoft is #3 on Forbe’s list of The World’s Best Employers for 2021. In addition to all of those reactions, the number of current and even past Microsoft employees who have reached out personally with offers of assistance once I am onboard to answer questions during the onboarding process and beyond has been terrific. Let me add right here that the awesome response of folks I know on social media and the positive reactions to my hire as an FTE at Microsoft has been much appreciated and overwhelming. However, I am sure that will start to wear off as the firehose turns on and the expected information overload begins! It is hard to believe that my start date at Microsoft has arrived – well the eve of my start date anyway.īeginning tomorrow, I start my dream job at my dream company and simply can’t wait to get started.
