Microsoft Program Manager Interview

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Redmond, WA – Reviewed Jul 30, 2012

Interview Details – Emails with recruiter followed by 1 or more phone screens. Phone interviews involved figuring out communication skills and overall personality fit, including relevant experience. Some minimal design problems will be asked. After that phone screen, you will be brought on campus with 4+ interviews. If you have <3, you already know you weren't hired. Each interviewer will ask similar but different questions, and are in constant communication with each other. So if you have a weakness it will be exposed and pressed in subsequent interviews.

Interview Question – Make the business case for Microsoft to enter the retail market, and design the architecture for the Point of Sale system.   Answer Question

Other Details - I applied through a recruiter and the process took 2 weeks.
