What kind of questions can I expect in Microsoft Business Planner position?
TLDR: Read Case in Point for case frameworks and Swipe to Unlock for understanding the tech and business strategies used in the industry. Study the typical behavioral questions, but focus on being able to answer tech case interview questions. There are 2 parts of a typical case interview: 1) Beginning the case interview with a mental framework This is when you typically need to develop an overall structure on how you want to tackle this case. Interviewers often ask something like "What are the issues you need to consider here?" or "Let's assume you are the project manager of this consulting assignment - which areas would you like to investigate?". For these questions, get your hands on the Case in Point book. The book will: 1. You get exposed to the variety of cases that you can expect in a case interview 2. You get an idea of how to converse with the interviewer/client while actually doing this job on the ground 2) Crafting insightful solutions that take Microsoft's business strategy into account The business frameworks from Case in Point will help you structure your answer. But read Swipe to Unlock to understand how technology works and the business strategies used in the tech industry. This book was invaluable for me when I interviewed for a PM role, and I know a lot of friends who applied for marketing/business development roles who prepared with this book. If you are crunched for time, check the index for where to find all of the Microsoft cases in the book and read those first. It will give you all of the context and insights into the strategic decisions Microsoft has made over the years (i.e. why they acquired LinkedIn, why they started Bing, their competitive positioning in the cloud market, etc). Good luck!
