I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jun 2011
Interview
HR interview for 30 minutes, followed by interview by hiring manager for 30 mins. The min areas where I stumbled is where do you see yourself in 5 years in this job. Try to be specific and not to vague otherwise they think you are not really interested in the specific position. And that you are only interested in getting a foot into Microsoft then look for something better.
2 week after applying online the recruiter called, we set up a phone screen, after that completed a 3x back to back interview with an hour break in between. Not too bad overall and very manageable
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a difficult stakeholder and how you handled the situation
Interviewed at Microsoft but I did not get an offer. Team was nice and there were free drinks and some snacks on site which was a plus. I would love to apply and interview again!
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Typical behavioral interview process. STAR format style interview questions. Why do you want to work at Microsoft, tell me about a time questions, greatest strengths, greatest weaknesses. Consisted of a recruiter screening, and three back to back interviews with senior and principal PMs.
