I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Jan 2009
Interview
Phone interview was a lady in Office group. She sounded uninterested. Some resume questions. That didn't go so well, but (after a long time)I got invited to onsite anyways. Questions include reversing string, atoi, etc. I was very impressed with the free sodas. Had lunch interview, then met big boss in the end. Overall a great learning experience!
1 Phone Round that was 30 mins where I was asked a mix of technical and behavioral questions.
2 back to back 45 minute interviews each with 1 coding question.
