Process

The first interview was on my university campus. It was 30 minutes, and I wouldn't really call it an interview. It was just meeting someone who might think you're a good fit or not. All they asked me was what I was interested in and why.

I was flown out to Redmond for the final round interview. They don't spare any expense with candidates. The interviews started promptly at 8 AM and finished at noon. You will meet with different managers to see where they might think you're a good fit. There are four one-hour interviews, all back-to-back. It's exhausting since some will ask comfortable questions, while others will make you sweat in explaining why you made certain decisions in your projects. These managers have all had at least 20 years of work experience. Don't try to BS your answers because they will see right through it. Answer honestly! They know that you don't know anything.

They will let you know if you got the job or not within a day or two.
