not quite right

Last week I had the awesome opportunity to interview with a very cool team at Microsoft. We talked for hours about the technical challenges they are facing, trying to determine if my skill set would be a good fit for an open position on their team. I found out today that they felt I would be "an excellent test manager", but their position was more "hands on." I'm disappointed as I felt the "hands on" part of the job was particularly exciting - never could keep from coding - but I respect their decision. The staffing consultant for the team is going to pass my resume to other teams and I'll keep hunting for just the right fit!
