Interview
I was brought in for an initial interview in October of 2016 for an on campus interview. Two weeks after my interview I was told I was still being considered for the next round of interviews and I would hear back sometime from January 2017 to March 2017. I was initially confused until I found out several months later that the recruiter in charge of my application no longer worked for Microsoft. Eventually I finally heard back in March that all positions had already been filled for the year and was told to apply again in July. I was incredibly disappointed at how unorganized and long this application process was and genuinely felt like my application just got lost in the process.

The interview experience was smooth within the given time slot. The candidate need to join the teams calls with their recruitment team and get your interview done.
