I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Feb 2014
Interview
I handed in my resume during the career fair, and 3-4 days later, I received an e-mail, which asked me to sign up an 1-1 interview. The recruiter came to my school and interviewed me at career service. I was kind of nervous during the interview since it was my first technical interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Common interview questions. The technical one is "reverse words in a string". She also asked me if I like or dislike any Microsoft products and why.

Interview
Was unsure about working for Microsoft, but I handed in my resume at the career fair anyway and got called for an interview the next day. The interviewer was very unprofessional. And when he asked and I described what I was looking for in a career, he took it to mean that I can't code (very false) and proceeded to a fifteen minute lecture on why coding was important. I lost interest in the interview soon after that.

Question 1
Fairly simple logic puzzle (because he assumed I couldn't code - even though my resume and I said otherwise).
