Microsoft is "building pipelines". Recruiter reached out saying they're not hiring. It was a big disappointment and waste of time. This should be clear up front to avoid wasting time on both sides.
Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Espoo)
Colloquio
Job and role based questions. A conversation with the team and hiring manager. I appreciated highly that there was a chance to talk with the team. That experience brought a lots of insight about the role and gave me also an opportunity to better evaluate if I am a good fit.

They presented different scenarios of potential customer cases and I was expected to walk them through how would I solve the situation.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 6 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (New York, NY)
Colloquio
Interview with the internal Microsoft recruiting team, which put me on a approved list to interview once a appropriate role opened up. Four months later I went through a virtual panel interview; three 45 minute interviews with 15 minute break in between. Interviews were with 1 Sr. CSAM and 2 CSAM Directors. Very conversational with behavioral questions. Currently waiting to hear back from the recruiting team.

What was your biggest career success/ failure?
Tell me about technical conversations you have with customers?
Tell me about a time when you ran into a problem that no one else had delt with before?
[Screen call] it was held virtually, talked with a customer success account manager even though it was a screen call. The conversation was conversational and good, but felt the questions were a bit hard to give example in STAR format
