This is the latest story in my ongoing epic adventure of job hunting for coop. Today I received an email from Amazon explaining to me that I would not advance to the next round of interviews with them. This was pretty disappointing for me, because not only were they my top choice for coop, but also I felt the interviews I had with them went very well. I suppose the competition for popular companies like that is fierce, and there were simply more talented or experienced applicants than I.
When I saw this email in my inbox, I also found that Microsoft had sent me an email as well, just a few minutes before the Amazon one. This email informed me that I had advanced to the next stage of interviews with Microsoft, at their main office in Redmond, Seattle. This more than made up for Amazon's rejection letter, and I am now very excited about my trip to Seattle. I have never been to Seattle before, so this will be a good opportunity for me to do some sightseeing as well.
No matter what the outcome, I'm sure that I will have fun on this trip, and am proud to have come so far in the interview process already.
