I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Kuwait) in Sep 2009
Interview
The interview consisted of around three phone interviews which were generic and behaviuoral and two one-to-one interviews which were technical. The technical interviews were mainly about the products i will be responsible for, they asked a lot of questions about my previous experience with these products and about how do i convince a negative customer who had a bad experience with microsoft products to buy them
Normal interview process - 3-4 times of interviews. 1 with hiring manager, 1 with peer, 1 with M2 manager.
There was not project, skill-assessment type projects before the interview.
After submitting the resume, everything was set up pretty quickly compared to other normal process from other companies.

The interviewers asked me some challenging questions about my previous work experience. They mostly focused on education and my previous job. Overall the process was ok but I wouldn't do it it again
