I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jul 2021
Interview
The process itself was very slick, professional and (seemingly) friendly. A written set of questions, interview with a senior in the same role, then another interview with hiring managers. Feedback
throughout was quick, and positive. Until the final decision - then ghosted, no explanations or even a one line email just an auto notification. Don’t give good feedback at each stage and then no explanation at the end. How can people learn from mistakes or gain experience for next time?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
General PM industry questions, especially around agile
2 week after applying online the recruiter called, we set up a phone screen, after that completed a 3x back to back interview with an hour break in between. Not too bad overall and very manageable

Question 1
Tell me about a difficult stakeholder and how you handled the situation
Interviewed at Microsoft but I did not get an offer. Team was nice and there were free drinks and some snacks on site which was a plus. I would love to apply and interview again!
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Typical behavioral interview process. STAR format style interview questions. Why do you want to work at Microsoft, tell me about a time questions, greatest strengths, greatest weaknesses. Consisted of a recruiter screening, and three back to back interviews with senior and principal PMs.
