Applications have opened again for Microsoft Internships for the engineering roles SDE and SDET.
As posted often on WA MSP, Microsoft Internships are an awesome way to get a headstart in your career, while learning a bunch and having heaps of fun.
|
Options are Good. In life and in your career. |
A Real World Experience like No Other. As an intern at Microsoft, you’ll have real responsibility, real work, and real opportunities to jumpstart your career. (You’ll get paid, too!) It’s an experience you’ll never find in a classroom. You’ll be given manageable assignments that you can complete while you’re here, and your efforts will likely take shape in Microsoft products—or be used by Microsoft teams—long after you return to school. And imagine millions of customers, not to mention your classmates, seeing your work! Some interns even parlay their experience into a job offer.
An Opportunity to Shine. Our interns make a real difference. Not by filing paperwork or running errands, but by developing real products. Here, you’ll run your own projects and put your skills to work. This is why our internship program is one of the most successful in the industry. You’ll learn more in 12 weeks than you would in a whole school year. It’s the kind of work that gets noticed by millions of people all over the world. Kind of redefines the whole concept of internships, don’t you think?

Some of the Aussie Interns have made a video about their internship.
In case you missed it, recently I was accepted into a Microsoft Internship for 3 months.
We left Perth, Australia on the 23rd of Nov, travelled for around 30 hours and finally got to our apartment in Redmond late on still, the 23rd!
I started New Employee Orientation (NEO) the next morning at 8am which ran day 1 and till noon day 2 when we received our ID cards.
I got one of the Microsoft Prius Shuttles over to my building and met my Manager and Peer Mentor.
So now I’ve just finished my first day on the job here at the Microsoft HQ in Redmond, WA and it was great.
I am in the Server and Tools business division, working on developer tools for Visual Studio Team System.
After having some good talks with my mentor and manager I was introduced to the rest of the people in my team. I set up my machine and added it to the domain. Attended a SCRUM meeting which was primarily focused on quality control of our product. Discussed and decided on the project I will be working on during my internship and wrote up a small “about me” document for the rest of the team.
And true to the Microsoft free drink thing, I went ahead and drank 3 chocolate milks for the afternoon 
So first impressions? The team is awesome, and my manager and mentor are really fun and relaxed who definitely seem to know their stuff. My project looks pretty difficult, but really interesting.
I’ve got high expectations for the rest of the internship.
If you have any questions about Microsoft Internships for Australian students, please leave a comment.

Just back from Imagine ‘08 – what an awesome event!
The event was opened by Luke who stepped everyone through a number of videos highlighting the Power of students. Luke also discussed Dreamspark which has finally landed Down Under and Imagine Cup ‘09. Who knows? Maybe this year we’ll finally see a UWA team!
David then stepped in with “Gaming your way onto Facebook” – an awesome demo which stepped through the creation of a Popfly shoot-em-up which was then published, with leaderboard, to Facebook.
Next we ran a quick session about the MS Internship process. UWA has 3 interns going this year, the second highest from any university (apart from UQ), beating out universities like UNSW and USyd and decimating Victoria (none!). Great news for anyone at UWA who may have thought that being too far over West was a disadvantage.
I then followed up with a quick overview some online services being offered by Microsoft – Deep Zoom, Photosynth and Live Mesh, if you haven’t checked them out – do so! Don’t forget to sign up for the UWA Live Mesh Comp as well and beat out the other unis (including our blog brothers from Curtin)…
From there we moved to on to the IEEE supported free BBQ for participants where we handed out a boat load of swag and prizes to some happy recipients.
We’re always interested in feedback – so leave us a message (or two) with what you thought.
See you at our next event!
What it is?
The Student Daze MSP Summit 08 is the first of what will be an annual event to bring together the top MSPs at the Microsoft HQ in Remond, WA. MSPs from each of the 13 regions meet for 2 intense days to help shape the MSP program for the year to come. Up to 4 MSPs from each region are flown to Redmond to make a group of around 50 MSPs.
Sign up now at: imagine.wamsp.com.au
We’ll elaborate a little more on the program and plan closer to the date, but for now – head over to imagine.wamsp.com.au and sign up so that you don’t lose your spot!
Don’t forget to tell / bring your friends!
For those who somehow missed the posters plastered around uni…
Awesome news just off the wire – three UWA students, including our very own MSP, Luke, are on their way to Seattle for this year’s batch of Aussie interns!
UWA had a strong representation at this year’s internship interviews in Melbourne, which is great for the uni and for all of those who tried out. A good effort was put in by all, but as they saw in Melbourne, there were a lot of candidates vying for those internship spots – but still, good on everyone for getting so far!
Congratulations Luke, David & Jeff!
Stay tuned throughout the summar as WAMSP will keep you up to date with the guys as we follow them through their internship.
