I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Buenos Aires) in Dec 2007
Interview
They called me on the phone and ask me a little about myself. This took five minutes. We arranged a meeting, where I was introduced to the person who would be my leader. I spoke to him, then I returned for a talk with the HR. I was sent to made medical studies. Two weeks later I started working.
