Well...like I stated before the interviews at Microsoft can be pretty haggard as you go through a "Loop" of 5 to 6 different people throughout a full day.
I made it through 2 and then the recruiter met up with me and told me that the team had decided I wasn't what they were looking for.
Kind of a bummer because although I wasn't sure if they would hire me..I was pretty sure I would at least make the full loop.
Not sure why..as this job is well within my abilities..all I can figure is I must have said something that made them think I was not who I am...or maybe who I truly am is not something they want.
Microsoft is real big on behavioral interviews...so really it is up to the interviewer and if you answer something incorrectly in their eyes, the whole interview could be blown. I am supposed to find out some feedback this coming week on to what caused the "boot". Ouch!!

I interview on the 17th..talk about quick.
Well...I have my interviews tomorrow...on the twins b-day. So..I great present for them would be for the interviews to go great..cause then it would be much easier to take time off an be able to afford a trip down to visit..for the twins of course. other wise its not a birth day present.
SO...on that thought, for Anne and Lis
"Feliz, Feliz en tu dia...Amigitas que Dios te bendigas...y que cumplis mucho mas"

Another interview coming up!
Well spoke with the manager from another team today...kind of an informal interview. He said afterwards he was excited to see if I would work out for his team and asked if I would like to go through an interview loop for his team.
I would be dumb if I didn't accept...plus it sound like a cool change of pace. It is a similar job in most aspects related to the actual process...but is different in who we support.
Rather than publisher facing it is advertiser facing...there is a possibility I would still over lap with my current team..at least for a while.
I guess the interview will be later this week or early next week. Will try and keep you updated.
The last position went to the other guy I was up against..I don't begrudge him anything as he is a very intelligent guy and some one that I trust to have our backs.
