That's common behaviour for just about any game, not just ESO. Alt-tabbing from a fullscreen game to another application always has a noticeable delay while the OS switches from the game to the non-fullscreen application.

Yes, I have had this problem. I take it as a sign the game has crashed as it normally happens in a load screen and I jave noticed the Ouroboros has stopped spinning.

The only solution I have found is to restart my machine. It's very annoying.

If you ever get stuck in a loading screen, you don't really need to restart your computer.

You can press Windows Key + Tab, it will switch to a screen where you can create a new desktop, open the task manager from there, force ESO to close, Winkey + Tab again to switch back and remove your new desktop, and open the game again!
