 I have been asked about the process of applying for a visa to work in the US, so I though I'd give my experiences, and explain the process that I went through to get here.
There are several stages in the job application and relocation process. Some of these take a great deal of time, and some are very quick.

 How times change. A year ago, I would have said that I wouldn't consider it, and now, here I am. This has been in the works for some time, and now I can finally talk about it.
In early May, I was contacted by Hugh - one of my lecturers from RMIT - who had left the university some months prior. He's not the sort of person to contact an aquaintance out of the blue just to say "hi", so my curiosity was piqued before we even spoke.

I'd given it a lot of thought. I still wasn't completely convinced about working for Microsoft, but I was a bit more open to the idea. The idea of building a search engine to compete with Google certainly had it's appeal - especially in the early stages. So a week or so after my meeting with Jim, a recruiter from Microsoft named Jenna contacted me and asked me to come to Redmond for a full day of interviews. So I figured, at worst, I get a free trip to Seattle. Angie was pregnant with Callum at the time, with only a couple of weeks to go, so I asked Jenna to postpone the trip until after Callum was born.
