      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Microsoft

      Interview

      Interviewed via Skype with three different people. Two during one interview and one in another. The pair of interviewers seemed rushed and slightly arrogant. Didn't want to work there after talking with them.

      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dublin, Dublin) in Nov 2017

      Interview

      I am not 100 % sure about the job title, but it has been something like this - a medium junior sales role. I had a quick phone interview with the recruiter - very friendly & helpful. 2 days later 2 interviews each a 1:1 - the first one was a mock call and it was okay & the interviewer friendly. - the second one was a general questions about motivation, sales experience interview. It was horrible! He kept asking the same questions again and again and said 'do not answer with the same answer again!' Why Sales? Why Microsoft? Why Cloud? Why Sales? Why Microsoft? Why Cloud? Why Sales? Why Microsoft? Why Cloud? Why Sales? Why Microsoft? Why Cloud? :( I went out of the office and had tears in my eyes, because I was so angry!

      Sales Development Specialist Interview

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Fargo, ND)

      Interview

      Typical process that begins with a phone screening/"fit-for-job" interview. Then comes a follow-up interview to walk through your resume. And finally, a series of either on-site or skype interviews. To get a position a Microsoft requires passion for the position and the company and they have a multitude of questions that can figure out where your character, creativity, and of course, passion lies. Be prepared for a mock sales call as your final interview.
