Doing some research. It is fun to write down what you read, and then, come back later to review again and again.
Take some notes from the following articles:
Land that interview
http://landthatinterview.com/microsoft/the-microsoft-interview-process/
Facts:
1. Microsoft is really structured like many small companies internally, each with their own recruiting teams.
2. a screening phone interview, also show that you are better than 90% of the hundreds of others
Advice for phone screen:
1. Talk talk talk in the technical phone interview, keep it on topic and don't try to steer the conversation, verbalize what you are thinking.
2. Second, have fun!
3. Ask a lot of questions and don't make assumptions. If you make assumptions, explicitly state that you are doing so and get the interview to buy in to those assumptions.
4. The hiring manager likes to know that the person will be engaged and productive.
Advice for interview in person:
1. 1 in 10 for a particular position -
2. proactively engage the recruiter
3. business casual attire, not a 3-piece (awkward)
4. first 3 interviews. May be interviewed by a developer, a test manager, a program manager, and the hiring manager. Finish before lunch time.
5. the as-appropriate interview - last regular interview will be over at round 4:00 in the afternoon.
Julia's comment:
Julia likes to do some research on Microsoft interview process. Now, she knows that Microsoft does not practice interview as Google does, using hiring committee.
