I turned down Microsoft because I didn&#039;t like the position of tester they offered me (although from what I know that is the &#039;standard entrance&#039; in Microsoft), and for a personal reason. However, I liked a lot their selection process, and I want to say that for me is a different experience and set of advices.
First of all, be yourself. If you&#039;re not good enough, you won&#039;t fool anyone. My preparations for the interviews were only mental - and I think that it&#039;s the job of the interviewers to get out the best out of you. For the reverse, the Google interviews are made to eliminate candidates, and it shows.
Microsoft interviews were, for me, the best interviewing experience, too bad that the moment for me was not so good and I had to turn them down.
About socializing: I had trouble socializing with Romanian candidates, and they were two in the same &#039;lot&#039; with me. It seems that they only tried to remind themselves that they are holy blood by speaking a Latin language.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Congrats and good luck.<br

Have fun at MS, learn as much as you can, make many good friends and be successful!
