I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Saw an ad for it at college, applied, passed CV screening, then there was a phone interview (it was an opening in Redmond for Brazilian students). Interviewer asked a bit about college experiences, previous programming experiences/portfolio, and some technical questions. Didn't pass since the main question was a software testing one and I didn't know anything about that. There were internships in development and testing, but they clearly wanted people who would accept the testing jobs.
1 Phone Round that was 30 mins where I was asked a mix of technical and behavioral questions.
2 back to back 45 minute interviews each with 1 coding question.
