Wow, I finally got to share this with my LinkedIn family.
It’s been 3 months and 10 days since I started my role as a Software Engineer (New Graduate) at Microsoft.
Several months back while actively job searching scrolling through LinkedIn, I see posts of thousands of people joining top software companies, and I say to myself; would this ever be me?
Would I ever be in a position to make such a huge announcement?
If you would agree with me, studying for technical interviews isn’t a walk in the park, most especially the process that leads up to it, from gaining attention from recruiters, seeking referrals, applying for the job and basically trying to be your best self DAILY.
26th January, 2021; all that hard work paid off, times where I choose to give up, everything started making sense.
Delaying this post was all from a state of surprise, emotion and just basically trying to believe that I actually made it to my dream company.
Super thanks to God (for always giving me the very best, even with all my doubts) ,my family, the amazing support system I have as friends (Rita Okonkwo, Olumide Ogundare, Chinaechetam Maduabuchi, Ayodeji Fabusuyi), and all the people that actually made my little dreams come through (Miracle Mercy Aduku, Katherine Safar, Valentina Mikrouli).
I received quite a warm welcome on my first day, lots and lots of love goes to Inioluwa Akinleye, Ilami Jane Omodara, and Paula Wigwe.
I was super excited, lol *winks*
Cheers to starting a lovely career, and hopes for more accomplishments in the future!
