Thank you! This is a great idea - I will definitely do that.

Seriously, accessibility technology is huge at MSFT and there are teams all over the place working on stuff, both MSR and applications inside product teams. Disclaimer: I work there.

Can confirm. Don’t forgot about MSFT subsidiaries like GitHub

That's a great tip, thanks!

That's great to hear. I've applied to some general postings - I don't see openings for teams working on accessibility for now, but will keep tabs on the website.

I would recommend getting a referral / anyone you know in ms to speak to the hiring managers directly. It will surely expedite the process

I'll try that, thanks!
