I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dublin, Dublin) in May 2024
Interview
Easy enough, an online test using Codility, a call from a recruiter and a three-round technical interview. This was followed up with a regular style interview where you could discuss the role in depth.
