I interviewed for a software engineer position. I passed the interview and was then asked to prepare and present a set of slides for a predefined project.

I presented the project and was invited to the Redmond, WA office to present to the SW team.

The presentation was well received with the exception of one strangely hostile former Microsoft employee who apparently had a chip on his shoulder. The presentation was followed with one-on-one software coding interviews (which I admit I hadn't prepared properly for due to preparing the presentation, time-consuming application, etc.) with typical software questions such as linked lists.

Again, I encountered the irrational, hostile former Microsoft employee, way past the point of rude. It was an awful experience. I don't think I would have taken the job if offered, knowing I would have to see that guy every day.
