    Aly - once you go to the website you can apply to business positions. but th eones they will interview in Dubai are the technical ones (SDE & SDET). Christine - it's for all: if you are not graduating in the period specified, then you can apply for internship. Sohaib - once you go to the link, click on "technical jobs" and then follow the links to apply. Here's a direct link: careers.microsoft.com/.../grad-software-jobs.aspx go there, and then click "Apply Now"
