I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2018
Interview
1st round: Phone interview to judge company fit
2nd round: 4 interview super day with one particular group within the company at Seattle HQ. If you kill the 4 interviews, u might be put up for a 5th interview with a partner.
All expenses paid for, the interview is usually fun. Every question that u prolly could need the answer to was in the 'How to crack a PM interview' book.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
4 types of questions: behavioral (MSFT is bigger on this than other PM positions), technical coding (base level), market sizing, case (not the consulting case) questions, and design questions.
