Interview process had 2 technical rounds followed by manager round and director round. Process got completed in a day in Microsoft office and it took another 2 weeks to release offer.

The whole process was very smooth! Started off with a 30 minute phone screen with a recruiter. You must be ready to talk about your reason for Microsoft, also be ready to break down technical terms into simplistic explanations. Should they decide to move forward, you would be invited for an onsite interview. The onsite consists of 3 very subjective interviews where you would be making a 10 minute presentation of any topic of your choice in one of the interviews. The reason I said the interviews are subjective is because I was expecting behavioral interviews but my first interview was fully technical. I also had to whiteboard (pseudocode however). I was tested on what was on my resume so be fully prepared to defend your resume in its entirety. My second interview was where I did my presentation. My advice for a topic is one in which you can demonstrate technical knowledge and passion simultaneously. I knew my interviewer enjoyed the presentation and the rest of the interview was very smooth. My third interview was a case study style. A lot of scenarios of working with clients and having to resolve issues. Tip: Utilize the whiteboard and show structured thinking in however you come up with an answer/recommendation.

Due colloqui in sede a Milano nel 2019. Primo colloquio tecnico sorprendentemente discriminatorio: quando l'esaminatore ha visto la fede al dito ha detto subito: "Questo non è un tipo di lavoro per chi è sposato e magari ha figli". Secondo colloquio con manager in collegamento remoto molto piacevole e discorsivo (in inglese). Mesi dopo ho saputo che cercavano una figura meno tecnica e più commerciale. Inutile perdita di tempo, peccato.
