I did a Year in Industry at Microsoft and it was a fantastic experience! I got the opportunity to live in a social house of seven other interns all working for Microsoft. The role was extremely varied and flexible from managing budgets to implementing strategy and programmes it made work interesting. Additionally, I was given the opportunity to chair the intern committee and attend several celebrations and black tie events. From my successful Year in Industry, I managed to secure a Graduate Role at Microsoft starting in September.
