I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Oct 2014
Interview
I applied on-campus, and got an interview on-campus 2 weeks later. The interview lasted about 30 minutes. The interviewer asked one simple technical question first and then asked some behavior questions. In the last, we had a discussion on an open question. I thought I did pretty well, but still got rejected after one month. I don't think they really want to hire people from my university this year.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
First question is a really simple one, about fizz-buzz.
The last one is about design a scheduling function in operating system.

I submitted resume at University Career Fair. and took the on-campus interview two weeks later. I received the reject letter nearly one month later.
Microsoft held a college student programming contest on Campus this year without any presentation on the information session.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The tech question they asked is very easy(Fizz, Buzz and FizzBuzz game), with some behavior questions followed.
I think Microsoft has their results even before interview. Why they ask the same simple question(easier than any I have seen in glassdoor) for all the candidates, or they just did this to international students. or they never meant to recruit us.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
I applied online, and heard back in about a week. The first email was setting up an initial, behavioral phone interview and filling out some paperwork on what position I was interested in, along with what level of programming I wanted to do (i.e. Low Level, Application, Front End). Phone interview was within 2 weeks of that email. They asked non-technical questions to get an understand of how you think. Did not get any follow up interviews.
