Tour the Experience Microsoft Lobby in Redmond
Hello! My name is Ashley and I’m your friendly Microsoft Recruiting Concierge. You met me briefly last week in our intro video, but you might still be wondering what exactly I do as Recruiting Concierge. To sum it up, I get to hang out in our awesome Experience Microsoft Lobby and greet amazing people coming through the door each day for interviews. Now you’re probably beginning to wonder what the Experience Microsoft Lobby is all about… for those of you who don’t know, it’s kind of a big deal around here. Put every latest and greatest Microsoft product in one room and you have yourself one amazing Lobby! Makes for one sweet “office”! Picture this, Xbox 360 plus Kinect, Surface, Windows Phones, touch-screen computers, AND all the coffee and pop you can possibly drink all together in one room… not sure why I ever leave! But rather than me go on and on, it is way better to show you in person so I have put a together a quick video to show you what it is all about. Enjoy!- Ashley

Tour Microsoft’s campus dining
Did you know—just at our Redmond campus—we have 33 cafes, 37 espresso kiosks, and 500 kitchenettes stocked with 35 different kinds of free beverages?Tina over at Channel9 sat down with Mark Freeman of Microsoft Dining to give us a behind the scenes tour of Microsoft’s on-campus cafes and restaurants, including the Commons. In addition to serving 35,000 meals a day (wow!), Microsoft Dining also does a great job providing local food and brand options to employees and operating a “3 star green” service—the only corporate campus in the world that holds that distinction.
