Microsoft Interview Questions & Reviews in Shanghai, China Area

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Shanghai (China) (took 2 days)

Ok so this is Microsoft China so things are done a little differently.

I actually applied for this position without being 100% sure what it was.

One of the people to interview me called me and described the job as one that involves team work, technical knowledge and writing. Something that was very interesting to me.

Arriving at Microsoft I was setup with 4 interviews all in a row. Now one was running the interview process and I never really found out what the jobs of the 4 people interviewing me were.

Each person had a different version of what the job was, and how people cooperated. The person who I think would have been my manager (but he never said) took me around to show me the office. The Chinese staff who he worked with/supervised pretty much ignored him and he made vague bizarre comments to them.

No questions on technical knowledge, no coordination between interviewers, no testing of writing ability, repeating of questions, and no one could answer my questions.

I was given a free ticket to Shanghai and used that to have an interview in a job that I wanted and accepted.
