Thomas,
 
Thanks for the response regarding the MS interviewing process.  I met a MS
employee at a wedding this past weekend, and he said MS are on a hiring
rampage.  I'd LOVE to work for MS myself, but I'm concerned my tech skills
lay outside their forte (I have worked in the Industrial Controls industry
for the past 8 yrs, but I handle the "IT" responsibilities and interface
with many MS products on a daily basis).
 
Any advice on how to "spice up" a resume?  What flags would MS be looking
for, in terms of resumes?
 
Thanks for any advice!

I had the opportunity to interview for a position with MS. I have to say
that the people at MS are the nicest and most professional group of people
I've ever had the pleasure to meet. The interview process was fun and I got
to know a lot about them and they got to know a lot about me. They offered
me a position, but I couldn't convince my wife to accept the pay cut I would
have had would be worth it. MS would have been a great place to work and I
hope that in the future I can convince my wife that I should give it another
chance.
 
Don't fear the interview process. Be yourself, be honest, put your best foot
forward, and you'll do well. You'll learn a lot when you start working with
them.
 
Tom

Thanks, Manju!
 
I'd love to work at MS.
 
So far i was contacted last week and had a 25min HR type interview on the
phone.
The recruiter then said he would call this week for a 30min phone tech
interview and if that went well, I would be called in for a face to face.
I haven't heard from him yet to set up the tech phone interview.
 
As i said, the only thing i'm kinda nervous about is Exchange 5.5 questions
as i haven't touched an exchange 5.5 server in about 3.5 years.
 
Thanks for taking an interest!
