#2) Recap

I heard back from from Kelsey, my recruiter.  She informed me that Microsoft would not be pursuing an offer.  She suggested applying again at a later date to see if it would work better with a different part of the company.  I tried asking for some feedback from the interview so I could apply it to my other ones, but she wasn’t able to give me anything.  Oh well, I’ve got a number of other prospects, here is the overview of my trip.

My plane left at 9am on Thursday, I didn’t have a ride so I was up at 5 to get ready and head out on public transportation to get to the airport.  It was fairly warm and rainy that morning and I figured it would probably be about the same when I landed in Seattle.  The flight wasn’t too bad, a nice 3.5 hr flight that turnes out to only be 1.5 hr because of traveling through time zones.  There wasn’t too much to see throughout the flight because of the cloud cover.  I did occasionally see some impressive clouds.  I slept through about the second half of the flight after I rand out of things to read (I need to remember book next time).  As we approached Seattle we dropped below the cloud cover and I could make out Lake Washington and Mercer Island was we came in for landing.
