Microsoft

I was a college hire, which I think is the easiest way of getting hired at Microsoft. I initially got interviewed at my university along with 200 other students. Then I got an on-site interview. The on-site interview was a series of 5 interviews: *

First Interview: Phone screening. Talked mostly about previous projects and teams I've worked on. Second Interview: At company office. Had five interviews covering abstract problem solving, programming problem solving, and syntax questions.

The technical interview included two different technical coding questions with discussion in between. The technical coding question was presented on a website with a Visual Studio-like environment, which was very helpful to use.
