I first received a call from the recruiter.
Initial Interviews: These were a mix of behavioural and technical questions.
Final Loop: Strategy, execution, and hypothetical product releases were all covered in the final round.
I learnt a lot about the culture at Microsoft and what they generally look for in their interviews from Product Alliance’s flagship course.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you assess whether or not to discontinue a product?
2 week after applying online the recruiter called, we set up a phone screen, after that completed a 3x back to back interview with an hour break in between. Not too bad overall and very manageable
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a difficult stakeholder and how you handled the situation
Interviewed at Microsoft but I did not get an offer. Team was nice and there were free drinks and some snacks on site which was a plus. I would love to apply and interview again!
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Typical behavioral interview process. STAR format style interview questions. Why do you want to work at Microsoft, tell me about a time questions, greatest strengths, greatest weaknesses. Consisted of a recruiter screening, and three back to back interviews with senior and principal PMs.
