It's official...

Mr. Grant is going to Washington!

 

Earlier in the month I flew out to Redmond on a cold day (here, rainy there) and had a full day of interviews with the Windows Home Server team which lasted ~8:15 (letting me finally leave campus @7pm).

 

The next morning I had breakfast with the team's GM (who was unavailable the day before) who let slip that I'd likely be receiving an offer.

 

On the way home that night I got a voice mail from the recruiter.

 

After a bit of telephone tag the next day I received an official offer, and the day after that I accepted.

 

Bo ya!

 

Come March 24th (so long as nothing else changes) I'll be joining the Windows Home Server team as an SDE and from the sounds of it... I'll be owning large portions of the SDK.

 

See ya this summer littleguru!

 

(The reason I waited a bit to announce this was was a twinge of paranoia about the background check which at last came back clean today (9 business days after it began))
