I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2018
Interview
I had a 30 mins interview on campus. A very easy technical question with some behavior. 2-3 weeks late I heard back from them and they flew me onsite to Seattle. They covered everything including Flights and hotel accommodation. I had issues with my travel but I called them and they resolved it as soon as possible. My flight was delayed due to weather issues so I miss my connecting flight to Seattle. They booked a different route and I got to Seattle at 7 am and took an Uber to my interview at 8 am with minimal sleep. My interview experience was very positive and they got back to me pretty quick. The recruiter is very amazing and he replies to my emails under an hour. He is so amazing and helpful.
