The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Oct 2008
Interview
Initial interview was a quick "get to know you" on-premises with the Hiring Manager. A follow-up phone interview then took place with a Microsoft Recruiter. After the first phone interview, there was a day-long interview with six Microsoft employees either directly or indirectly related to the Account Manager position and also an intro interview with a Microsoft Recruiter. Lunch was provided and everyone tried to ensure that each of the applicants were comfortable and relaxed. After the day-long iterview, there was more correspondence with the Recruiter and also a phone interview with another Microsoft Manager.
