I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Hong Kong) in Feb 2020
Interview
Due to Covid, I had 3 interview through MS Team.
Interviewers were nice and well organized.
However, their expectations were very high. I hv to answer the questions carefully.
Hopefully, I hit the points and my job experience matched their requirements.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Simple circuit design
power cycle affects hardware reliability
how to handle difficulties in job.
Not too technical, only a few simple oral questions about coding skills. Other questions are behavioral, such as asking what's your biggest challenge so far or what is your strength/weakness.
Took about month to hear from them. Email described that your papers have been read and your interview is being scheduled. Next week the recruiter invites to a meeting the next day. 1st meeting with the recruiting manager. Sadly not invited to proceed. I was asked during the interviewing about skills that I did not have.

Question 1
Have you been been in charge of installation/investment processes when getting new equipment?
I was directly invited to the final round. Three sessions followed, each lasting 45 minutes, with a 15-minute break between them. It was a rigorous process but an exciting experience overall.
