I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in May 2011
Interview
After two 1-hour phone screens, I got interviewed using live meeting. The interview was standard Microsoft interview with a lot of coding questions. I was interviewed by 5 interviewers on one day, and another on day 2 but by that time I was quite sure I would get the job.I had had reservations about the live meeting but it turned out to be a better way to interview with the ability to code on the computer rather than the white board.
