      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Cairo, Cairo Governorate) in Oct 2014

      Interview

      The HR contacted me through LinkedIn. I had an interview with a SQL Support engineer. The interview went well. Just basic questions about .NET framework such as IL, CLR, threading and basics in Web development. There were some SQL troubleshooting problems. The interview was about 30 minutes over the phone. The HR scheduled a 2nd interview at MS office. When I went to the office. I came 30 minutes late. So, as a punishment they cancelled the interview. The HR tried to reschedule the interview but I suspended my application.

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dallas, TX) in Sept 2010

      Interview

      The process is long but there is a lot of reason for that. They need to make sure that you will be able to keep up with the job

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Some technical questions are confusing but also because the interviewer doesn't know the answer either in detail and they only have some sort of "script" in paper
