My first round was an on-campus interview. After clearing this, I had four on-site interviews in Seattle.
The interviews were heavy on Data Structures, especially Linked Lists. Other topics asked in the interviews included:
- SQL
- .NET Framework (because I had C# on my resume)
- Some behavioral questions.

Pros: Microsoft has really good benefits, but not much more than that.
