A Voice in the Dark

I’m heading back to Redmond and a contract position at Microsoft, although I can’t say anything specific about the position just yet. I’ve got several outstanding interviews with teams throughout Microsoft; one of them has already come through with an offer, so the only question is whether any other teams will make offers.

The tough part is that I’d love to have any of these positions, so it’s not so much which offer to take as which offers to decline… and I’m not going to like declining any of them. If I were to pick just one team out of the bunch as the prime choice, it would be the one that’s already made an offer, but I don’t have enough information about some of the other positions to make an informed choice. I need until at least Friday afternoon to finish up some interview processes and have enough information, and there’s an outside chance that some vital data will become clear on Monday morning.

In other news, I have now spent a total of 172 hours in Microsoft interviews, and judging by my current schedule, Monday afternoon will see it break 180. Whichever offer I end up accepting, it will be my seventh consecutive Microsoft contract.
