it is done

After a few weeks of drama, I have finalized my plans for the summer. I will be working at Microsoft this summer as a Product Planner for Windows Live. Good stuff.

It's been an interesting few weeks. I'll provide a more detailed summary at a later point when I have some more time. High level, I had an offer from DuPont, which coincidentally came the same day as my invitation for second round interviews with Microsoft. Happy Valentine's day for me! I interviewed last week at Microsoft, and I also spoke to several people at DuPont. Here's a quick summary, cut out from an e-mail I just sent.

Unfortunately, I have decided to work for your sister-in-law instead (funny how these things work). I still think that the DuPont position is an excellent opportunity, and I hope to let others know about what DuPont has to offer. I am a leader of the Marketing Club and the Technology Club here, so I'll be playing a big part in letting them know what types of employment options there are out there.

What are the odds?
