There are usually 4 1-hour interviews for each interview loop. Internal candidates can request an "informational" 30-minute meeting with the hiring manager to decide if they want to apply. The interview loops are hard to schedule due to crazy calendars of the interviewers. They try to get external candidates in on the same day but internal candidates are sometimes spread across multiple days of interviews.
The hiring manager is supposed to reach out to the people to offer the job or explain why they didn't get it. I've found that they rarely call when you don't get it. If you do get the job, it takes 1-2 weeks to process everything before you can accept an official start date in the new role.

Always expect to give detailed examples of situations and how you handled it. Expect them to ask you about times when you failed and what you learned from it.
Great experience! Two rounds of interviews and mainly behavior-based. Each round you spoke with different interviewers in the related department for 45 minutes each. The first round was 30-45 minutes, the final was around 4 hours.

I applied online and received an invitation for a phone screen a month later. The person who conducted the phone screen was an analyst on a team. He asked me questions to gauge my interest in Microsoft and to learn more about my past experiences. Five days after my phone screen, I was invited to interview at their Reno, NV location. The super-day consisted of three back to back interviews. All interviews were behavioral. Two of them seemed to test for fit with Microsoft's culture. My last interview was all about my interest in Microsoft. I think I did well in my first two interviews but was definitely not prepared enough to speak about my passion for the company. I was able to recite the mission statement and had a few, not well known, reasons to want to work there, but the interviewer really pressed for why I wanted to be apart of their mission compared to other tech companies. The last interviewer recommended I read Satya's book and watch Netflix's Steve Jobs documentary to be more passionate about the company. I was rejected two weeks after my super-day. Overall, I had a good experience, everyone was very nice and Microsoft even reimbursed candidates for sightseeing!

It was smooth. Phone interview, after that face to face interview with 3 senior managers. They saw my skills more in Project management in IT. Did well but my skills aren't what they needed. Got feedback from the recruiter 2 weeks after the interview. They were all nice. Wished my skillets matched what they wanted
