Interviewed Sep 2011 in Redmond, WA (took a day)
When leaving the building while visiting a former supervisor, a colleague was coming into the building and asked me how I was doing. I told her I was looking for a job and she said "come to see me"; she knew me from working in the same building with several other groups. We emailed to coordinate date and time and I went. She was very nice and positive but very busy; even though I had a hard copy of my resume, she asked to email it to her so she could forward it to the hiring manager. I have not heard from her again.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo (Brazil) (took 8 weeks)
I was first interviewed by a recruiter of the agency that gave support to the process. Then I was directed to an interview with the HR analyst of Microsoft. In the same day I went to an English school to have tested my level in the English language. I did both written and conversation tests there.
Four weeks later I was interviewed by 3 managers from the team of the director I would assist. It took two days. All of them were very receptive and deeply interested on understanding who I am. It seemed more as conversations between people that were just introduced than a traditional interview with questions and answers.
The process would have one more step with an interview with the director, but I was informed three weeks later that the process was over.
I was very pleased to be there and learn a little bit more about the company from the insiders. The only thing I would complain about is regarding the long periods without any answer.
