There were two rounds of interview as a college grad. Round 1 was a 30 minute on campus interview. Round 2 was flying out to Microsoft headquarters for a full day of interviews. The full day was back to back interviews -- I met with probably 5 people, each in a 1:1 situation. Program Manager interviews are divided into 3 sections: 1) design 2) behavioral 3) problem-solving. Each interview was composed of all 3 sections.

You are at the southwest corner of a city. The city streets are laid out in a simple grid fashion, with 8 streets running north-south and 8 running east-west. If you can only travel northward and eastward, how many different routes can you take to arrive at the northeast corner of the city?

Colloquio
Not a great experience with interviews taking 1 month to complete. Despite ongoing communication, the role did not move forward, reportedly due to approval constraints. The overall experience highlights a gap in aligning internal approvals before progressing candidates to advanced stages.
Clearer communication and better alignment internally would improve the candidate experience

Questions on Project Experience and Thought process

The interview process is grueling and I get why people do it but its more awareness, know that you'll spend an entire day and meet several people, so it's important to be mentally and physically prepared. Eat a good breakfast but not heavy stay hydrated. This was just for a PM role it's their standard process I imagine executive level is another thing altogether

Tell me about a time you didn't agree with someone who was a stakeholder on your project and how did you handle that?
Very smooth, thoughtful interview process. It showed the recruiter really cared what I had to contribute and asked great followup clarifying questions. Would definitely recommend everyone try an interview with them even if it doesn't pan out.
