Howdy folks, Today we're trying something entirely new! Every year in the Identity and Security Division we have 25 – 30 paid summer interns who join our team. Most of them have just finished their junior year in college and they spend the summer working with us on enhancing our products and services. It's a great way for them to get real-world experience working in software engineering. It's great for us as they bring a ton of energy and new ideas to the team. And many of them return to join us full time after they graduate which is even better. (I joined Microsoft myself as an intern way back in 1992 just in time for the launch of Windows 3.11 for Workgroups!) Jasmine Perez was one of our interns this year. She did some awesome work for us on our end-user UX and she's already accepted a full time job on our team next year! I asked Jasmine to write a blog post about her experience this summer which you'll find below. We're hiring like mad in the Identity and Security Division, so if you're interested in having an experience like Jasmine's, we'd love to hear from you! Have a great weekend! Alex Simons (Twitter: @Alex_A_Simons ) Director of Program Management Microsoft Identity and Security Services Division --------------------------------- Hi everyone, I'm Jasmine Perez and I'm senior at the University of Florida (Go Gators!). Alex asked me to write a blog post about my summer internship so here goes nothing! What's it like being an Azure Active Directory Intern? As a second time returning intern, I still think I hit the jackpot when it comes to finding a place where I'm excited about my work and everything outside of work too. I've come a long way in getting to know Microsoft with these past two summers. During my first internship, I was an Explorer Intern, which was a special program directed towards younger college students. In the program, we got to rotate between the different internship roles and select one to do the following summer. And that's how I got here today, a Program Manager Intern in the Identity & Security Services division at Microsoft.
