I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2017
Interview
It was hard. So always prepare. Watch a lot of you tube videos. Talk to seniors in college and in the industry. Brush up your coding skills, talk to the mirror while practicing. They pay well. Work hard. Party hard.
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jan 2021
Interview
I first sent in my application 3 weeks beforehand then they finally answered me and offered a phone interview. The questions were pretty simple, but I needed to know what I was talking about.
The interview went well - I did the phone screen and they asked me the questions I mentioned, and the technical wasn't so bad. 3 interviews all 45 minutes long.
