I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dublin, Dublin) in Mar 2023
Interview
Recruiter reached out after wasn't taken for previous role. Quick chat and call with hiring manager, previous interviews could be leveraged again so only one lightweight follow up technical interview done. As there was another offer on the table the process was speed up as much as possible.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Aug 2022
Interview
I had 3 different interviews before the virtual on-site (I know), and the on-site was split into 2 different days, 3 technical interviews each day. The process was good, most interviewees seemed very knowledgeable and the hiring manager was very helpful at all stages, including total expertise of knowing what all of the nuances for the job I was applying for where.
