Interviewed Apr 2011 in Redmond, WA (took 1 week)
The interview consisted of two one on one interviews with a team lead and manager. It was a very pleasant conversation and all my questions were answered. The best part was getting in front of the computer and dissecting things with one of the interviewers.
The excitement of the division was palpable and the energy felt great.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Redmond, WA (took 2+ weeks)
Participated in two initial phone screenings. The first screener asked very general questions and did not know much about the position. When I went in for the site interview, it was a very long say and I felt like each interviewer was just going through the motions and did not want to get to know me. They seemed like robots with their questions to check off. No sense of humor or warmth. I walked away exhausted and not excited about the potential experiance.

Interviewed Jul 2007 in Redmond, WA (took 2+ weeks)
The hiring process at Microsoft varies depends on the business unit you are interviewing with and the position you are looking to fill. I had been a FTE at Microsoft before interviewing for this contract so I only spoke with my direct manager and the manager of the entire team. If you are interviewing for a FTE role, the process can include an initial phone screen and then a technical screen. If you "pass" those initial conversations, you are brought in for a full round of interviews that can last all day and include up to 7 interviews. It is tiring and in some respects intellectually strenuous - but also fun.
