Me postulé en persona. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Microsoft (Redmond, WA) en sept 2014
Entrevista
At Microsoft, as a throwback to the good old days there is a draconian approach to interviews. They last a day and you meet with 5-6 people for an hour apiece. Those people get together and vote. The hiring manager then decides whether to move forward. If you do, you meet with the hiring manager, and then, if you pass, you often meet with their manager. The process takes all day. It can take months to get an interview and many more months to hear anything back if you are accepted. If you aren't accepted, you don't hear anything back. Not a really great experience. HR/recruiting is spread too thin to really be able to offer any insights or value.

For this role, the days of "trick" interview questions are over. The questions focus on your experience and value and seeing if you are fit for the team.

Entrevista
4 rounds of PM interviews. Quick scheduling, happened back to back within 2 days. The questions were around product design and thinking, with few questions on past work experience. If you follow a structured problem solving approach, you are good to go.

Simple -- recruiter screening first, then hiring manager interview. After that, interview with four different people. One was a technical interview with lunch. The other was with a potential teammate, then the Principal Group PM and the Principal PM Manager
