I used to work at Microsoft

I used to work at Microsoft Thailand as a software test engineer in 2006-2007. I was testing Thai language in help module of Windows Vista at that time. The works were all about manual tests and automated tests. I needed to follow the guidelines and used many tools to test the module. I also wrote some small test tools to be used specifically for my test case. So I guess you might do both manual + automated test + some coding.
Thank you very much for

Thank you very much for responses. I have few more question:
1> Since i like coding very much, will appreciate if u can tell me what fraction of time u spend on coding? is it above 70% of time?
2> If i feel the job is not suitable for me and resigned after a year, will it difficult to be developer again?
If you prefer coding, tell

If you prefer coding, tell the recruiter, maybe the coding position is also available. Coding and QA position requires different skill sets and attitudes, so I think you should raise the issue to discuss with the recruiter.
well i have already told him

well i have already told him that i am much more interested for programmer position. but look like MS thailand dont have developer team and their focus is on sales and support. I have ask them if i will get any chance to work with MS as developer in abroad? they told me i have same chance and procedure as non-MS employee.
Normally i would not consider doing testing but MS name make me bias. at first all i was thinking is that their project in testing will be very challenging and fun like coding. But still wonder if MS's name will boost my resume?
AFAIK. There is a MS

AFAIK. There is a MS developer team in Thailand, but it directly report to Redmond, not MS Thailand. And also the team and its products are under process of acquisition by another company. So it is understandable that they never mention about the team.
I don't have knowledge about switching between coding and testing position so I am unable to discuss. However, I think if you are really interested in coding positions at MS, you may express your interest to apply for a position at Redmond rather than Bangkok. Even it is the testing position, you still have a much better chance switching to coding positions at Redmond.
Working for outstanding or multinational companies always boost your profile even it does not relate to the position you are applying for. Because it means you have passed the tough recruitment processes and requirements, and it is likely that you have learn about and be familiar with the high standard working processes and multiple cultures environment.
Thank you very much.... this
