Technical interviews are very good. Interaction with Microsoft engineers is a real good learning experience. HR recruiters especially the Careernet contract folks are very un-professional. I think they are only paid to schedule the interviews. Once the interviews are done, they simply go on radio silence. Have some empathy towards candidates who spend lot of efforts and time for big companies like Microsoft. We deserve atleast a No if not a complete feedback. Don't keep us hoping for a call from you forever. Even a small office that has 50 to 100 employees has a better hiring process than Microsoft. Another observation is, some of the job posts that they are scheduling are already in-active. Why schedule and later say that the requisition is closed? Why are so many jobs posts are open for more than 6 to 8 months? Something really mysterious. Folks, try for other big companies that have better recruiters. Don't waste your precious time for Microsoft India. It's not worth it.
