I went through two rounds of interviews (10 different interviewers total) for the same role. I passed both and was never given an offer. Instead I was placed on a virtual bench waiting for an opening. In the meantime they are still interviewing for the same role. To me this is a dishonest process. Microsoft needs to stop wasting people's time. The people I spoke to were very nice and helpful but the process needs to change. I always wanted to work for Microsoft but now after having experienced this I am no longer interested. They are clearly missing out on good talent because I know at least 3 more people that have had the same experience with this process. And then I see posts on LinkedIn about people that are hired that cannot even articulate a sentence in English properly!
