I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Sydney) in May 2013
Interview
First round is phone interview calling from US, lasing for 40 minutes. Second round is the final round. I was heading to their Sydney office. There were 3~4 rounds interviews. Every round is 45 minutes, comprising a programming question. You have to be very careful about the details of each step of your code, especially the boundary case. Questions are all moderate difficulty.
