Anne Cheng you met Eugeni, just one of our interns from Brazil. Today, meet Ioana. And check back later this week to meet Bulut from Turkey! from Romania – Current Software Design Engineer in Test within the Fundamental Test team in Windows Ioana. Tell us a bit about yourself. am a student in the 4th year at Computer Science Faculty of University Politehnica of Bucharest,
microsoft windows 7 enterprise 32bit, Romania. Last year I participated as part of a team to Windows Embedded Student Challenge and our project, Forest Watcher, won the first prize. It was just one of the best experiences I had, because I learned a lot about developing a project and about working in a team. We still believe in the idea and we hope that we will implement it someday.
In my free time I like to read, meet my friends or watch a movie with my fiancé. What were your reasons for applying for an internship here? year,
win 7 enterprise cd key, when I was to Windows Embedded Student Challenge,
microsoft office Professional Plus 2007 code, I had the chance to meet people from Microsoft, to see how things work here and I was really impressed by how professional they were and how friendly. It also seemed like the right place to come if you wanted to get to work with the latest technologies or if you wanted to impact a lot of people with your work. were your interviews – were they what you expected? Any tips for future candidates? had both a telephone interview and then an “in person” interview, which contained both technical and non-technical interview. This way I was able to both prove my technical knowledge and to speak about myself and about the things that I was interested in. I think that during the interview it was important to prove not only the knowledge I had,

It was a great experience and although I was a little nervous before, when the interview started I relaxed and everything worked fine. You relocated from Romania. How was the relocation process for you? was much better than I expected. Microsoft made all the arrangements and all I had to do was to come in my nice new house. I also met a lot of people at Microsoft that came from outside US,

What are you working on this summer, and how have you been able to apply your learning from school? project is to do the testing for an application that will facilitate test automation. This way the tester will only have to record the steps of the testing and he’s (almost) done, instead of having to hard code the steps. It is very interesting, because I get to write testing specifications, which I haven’t done before, and to actually do the testing. I know that my work will impact a lot of people by allowing them to work more efficiently and that makes me really satisfied. What are the top three things you enjoyed most about your internship? like really much the people I work with. The team is very dynamic and always ready to help you. I also like that at the end of the summer I will be able to say that I had an impact on people and the tools they use. The third thing would be that you learn a lot of things. You get to work with the latest technologies and you experience the new tools before they are released. there anything you would change about your experience thus far?
A: I would probably sleep less and go instead to more intern events. There is a lot of fun here this summer and a lot of nice things to do, but the day has, unfortunately, only 24 hours. the feeling. Thanks, Ioana! last time, if you have any questions for Ioana or me, please leave comments.
