Positive experience

Average interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2010

Interview

I submitted my resume online for an intern software engineer position and got the 1:1 interview on campus. When you got the interview notice email you will also have to fill out an application form to specify your area of interests, skills and desired positions (even the positions that are not listed). Wore polo and pants, got some question on feature designs and you may have to write something on the white board.
