Process

The interview process was typical, starting with a phone screen with a recruiter, followed by four onsite interviews in Redmond. I was interviewed by my future manager, which was a nice touch. They flew me out, provided a nice hotel room, and offered plenty of food throughout the day.

I was part of a group of other candidates interviewing, which felt a little awkward at times, but overall it was fine. I interviewed on a Friday and received a call from the recruiter on Tuesday, indicating a quick process.
