Process

I submitted my resume to Microsoft at a career fair and, a couple weeks later, received an email requesting an on-campus interview.

The interview was casual, and the interviewer explained what the company was looking for and the areas in which they were hiring.

I was told the review process would take around six weeks to complete. If they were interested, they would fly me to their campus in Washington for six additional interviews.
