New Reality Series: Be the Next Microsoft Employee

Posted by Unknown on from the worst-prize-ever dept.

theodp writes "No, Steve Ballmer doesn't swap spit with contestants in a hot tub. Nor does he present a rose to each contestant he wishes to keep at the end of each episode. But the contestants in Microsoft's Be the Next Microsoft Employee web series, which is being billed as Top Chef for Geeks, do live together in a luxury waterfront home as they compete for the chance to interview for a job with the software giant. So, what's next from Microsoft? The Real Housewives of Medina?"

    No, they get a job. The 'chance to interview' was made up by the submitter.

    I think the point is to get into the reality show. Seems that this alone is good enough for some, to become "famous".

    This would be most impressive if they were inside Microsoft competing to get out.
