Today's episode is sponsored by Microsoft! Guests: Girish Bablani and Junior Diarrassouba, two Microsoft employees at different stages in their career. One seasoned veteran at the company, and one up-and-coming engineer, who share how Microsoft has expanded their career horizons and provided many different opportunities for growth and experience. Questions: Junior, how long have you been working at Microsoft? How did you find out about the opportunity? What were your expectations coming out of school, regarding projects you would work on? What are you actually working on today? Are you already working with customers to solve real world problems? Girish, you've been a Microsoft for quite some time - but how did things start for you? You are overseeing teams across Computer, Networking and Storage - but have you always been in this group? What other groups did you work in? Was it hard to switch, or did you receive push back? Both of you - how has Microsoft's opportunities opened your career horizons? What have you learned that you didn't know about prior to joining the company? What is the future for you at MS? What would you say to someone considering joining the team? Our Sponsors: * Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.
