      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Vancouver, BC) in Sep 2015

      Interview

      Although there was some trouble with the organization of the interview (hotels, locations, timing), everyone was very nice and easy to talk to. Stayed in a very nice hotel the night before which made me feel very refreshed for the interview. Overall I had a very positive experience interviewing with Microsoft.

      Answer question

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft in Nov 2015

      Interview

      It was a phone interview for about 20 minutes. I was asked why I wanted to join the Microsoft Foundry Program and was told details about it. I was also asked to talk about myself before the technical question. The interview was with a program manager in the Microsoft Foundry program and i was interviewing for a Software Engineer Intern position.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Vancouver, BC) in Jan 2015

      Interview

      3 rounds of technical interviews. Nothing unexpected. All the questions came from Cracking the Coding Interview. One guy came in with a bagel and was eating it the entire time. Later on he started texting while I was writing on the board and had my back facing him. That was quite shocking.
