The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Mar 2024
Interview
One phone screen then 3 back to back interviews on super day. Got placed on a waitlist then ultimately rejected. Everyone was nice for the most part but the waitlist thing is very annoying.

Question 1
Why Microsoft? How would you improve a past project you worked on?
It was not bad, I was interviewed and was asked a general knowledge question, which actually helped me identify areas for improvement and I think I genuinely learnt from the questions asked."
1 hr long Google meet. Was only focus on asking questions from a written list not on what we are saying. It was a rapid fire round. They ask all the elements of project management. Prepare with examples, realtime scenarios with respect to all waterfall methodology project management.
