I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jun 2011
Interview
The process took 6 weeks and required 6 interviews. In general the questions were similar, looking to see the fit with the company culture. Interviews were in person, through videoconference and phone. In addition there were IQ and personality tests. Despite the length of the process, human resources was always on top and kept me informed.

Question 1
Why Microsoft? Where do you plan to be in 5 years?
Interviewed at Microsoft but I did not get an offer. Team was nice and there were free drinks and some snacks on site which was a plus. I would love to apply and interview again!
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Typical behavioral interview process. STAR format style interview questions. Why do you want to work at Microsoft, tell me about a time questions, greatest strengths, greatest weaknesses. Consisted of a recruiter screening, and three back to back interviews with senior and principal PMs.
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Belgrade) in Mar 2026

It was a level II and it was a great chat with the interviewer. More questions about my past experience, how I handled new features, change of requirements and my thoughts about AI replacing or writing code.
