I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft in Feb 2008
Interview
1:1 phone interview with the manager first. Then a 5 hour phone/face to face interview with various groups across the company. Each interviewer was different and some were unprepared, did not have my resume or the phone number to reach me at their offices. HR asked basic questions about your background, skills. Marketing asked questions about experience with marketing - and how you would help them with their position. Definitely read and know those thought questions about how to move Mt Fuji- I was asked several of those questions.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me how you would do my ( marketing/engineering) job and do it better?
You have to reach and not go over 700 lbs on this scale. Everything can only be weighed one time. One group of products has already passed, but you have another set that has to be weighed without going over. How will you do this and please diagram it.
