Development and Infrastructure Consultants

Hello all,

Firstly I’d like to thank all of the people that applied for the Intern positions that I recently posted. We’ve had some fantastic interest and interviews are underway for all of the positions - I must say I’m pretty happy about the number of applications that came from my blog post.

With the ever increasing positions opening my time to blog decreases – I’d love to be able to provide the insights that fellow Microsoft recruiters like Zoe and Heather do – I’m a big fan of their work and hope to leverage off some of the cool stuff they do in the next coming months. I’d love you guys to have a look at their sites and let me know what you’d like to see from an Aussie perspective.

But for now I’ll stick to letting you know about some of the great roles we’ve just opened in Sydney.
