I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Sep 2019
Interview
One behavioral phone interview, asked a bunch of questions about projects that were listed on my resume. Then they gave me a free flight and stay to their campus in Redmond, WA for a couple rounds of technical questions.

Interview
I had an on campus interview about a month after I applied online. Two days after this I found out I made it to the final round. I was flown out to Redmond a few weeks later where they paid for my flights, food, and hotel. I had two interviews 45 min each and was only asked one coding question the whole time. Other questions were behavioral, about my resume, as well as a logical puzzle just to see how I think. Everyone was SO nice and I had an amazing interview experience. I found out 2 days after that that I got the job! I was over the moon about it but ultimately decided not to work there because I wanted to work for a smaller company. Thank you Microsoft for such a great experience!

Interview
First, some brief questions about resume and past experience. For the later 20 mins, it was 2 coding questions. In the end, there was some question time for the interviewers. Overall, the process is as expected.
