    Based on the job description, here are some questions I'd expect at the interview. Traditional interview questions Tell me about yourself. Why Microsoft? Why marketing planning manager? Case questions You have a $1MM marketing budget. How would you market Microsoft Office? Tell me a product that's marketed well. Tell me a product that's marketed poorly.
