I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Sep 2021
Interview
It was a very smooth process. The hiring manager was super nice and helpful, and so were the following interviews. The recruiter, however, was super unhelpful and a bit posh on the post-interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you handle a comms announcement?
Why do you want to join Microsoft?
Why do you want to leave your current company?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2022
Interview
Straightforward. Done in one day. Long waiting period to get any answer back. Polite interview panel. Recruiters need to be more up to speed with questions. Would recommend to interview for Microsoft to anyone.
The recruiters seem very on top of their game, very responsive and send materials to help prepare for interviews. It seems to be reflective in the culture of the company, all good signs.
