"Why do You need to function at Microsoft?" It really is my favorite interview question! I learn so much about the people I interview from this one simple query. Who they genuinely are as a person - not just that they are someone who codes or designs or tests. I hear their dreams, their goals, their passions, their desire to make the lives of everyone easier… whether it really is through software or the kind acts of one person. When I interviewed Tazin and asked him "Why do You want to perform at Microsoft?," he told me of his dreams ... and his dream to one day perform at Microsoft. He had heard about the Giving Campaigns that are driven by employees and matched well with his other dream of giving help to the community where he grew up in Bangledesh. I was impressed and incredibly moved by his dreams. Nothing could compare to the excitement I had when I learned that he would receive an offer from the group I support,
Office 2007 Standard Key! I immediately flashed back to his response about why he wanted to perform at Microsoft and felt so happy for him. Tazin accepted our Microsoft offer and immediately canceled his planned interview with Google because of the Microsoft Giving Campaign opportunities. He was going to live his dream! I wish to share with you what Tazin has been able to accomplish on the road to making his dreams and the dreams of others become real. He has been with Microsoft for less than one year and look what he has done!!! I am so incredibly proud of all that he has been able to accomplish in his professional life (for the Management & Administration Experience - MAX UX team) but even more proud of what he chooses to do to "give back." People ask me why I work at Microsoft … I am here because I am extremely honored to say I operate with and hire people like Tazin… And yes, Tazin's team does have openings: UX Designer / 218028 Click Here To Apply UX Researcher / 216811 Click Here To Apply UX Researcher / 220717 Click Here To Apply - Angela View Tazin's story: edited: 2/7
