I applied through university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Dec 2019
Interview
The interview process was pretty expedited considering I went through most of it via campus recruiting. I had an on campus interview, which then lead to an onsite final interview. The full time position interview process consisted of four 45 min interviews with a 10-15 minute break in between.
Expect a lengthy hiring process that can take at least two months from start to finish. In my experience, there was approximately one month of interviews followed by another month waiting for the final decision. Be prepared for a slow timeline, especially after completing all interview stages.
