Referred by a friend in the company and got an interview from the HR in about 1 week. Just general questions like why microstrategy. Got another phone interview in a week. They asked you to solve a problem. Then three to four intelligent questions like how to find the fastest horse.

Interview
Told the last day before the originally scheduled on-ground interview that their people were not able to come. Did phone screen instead. Same process as mentioned by others: personal experience; teasers; what QE teams do.
Some questions are widely available online; Some question didn't quite make sense: I was asked to be specific how I would test Google, and the manager didn't come up with clear instruction on what specific product and functionality when I asked.
The manager talked in a speedy monotone, sort of sensed she wasn't in a good mood.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at MicroStrategy (Tysons Corner, VA) in Dec 2013
Interview
I applied through employee referral. The first interview was HR screening. No problems there. I was then set for an hour interview for analytical test. I interviewer had 4 questions for me, simple and just like the ones in this website. I was called for an on site interview after that to be interviewed by 3 people. The first one had a programming/testing type of question, the second one had a quality type of question related to app developing and bluetooth technology. The third interviewer didn't show up. I was told they would schedule me for a phone interview with the third guy. I haven't heard ever since.
