I applied through other source. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Hyderābād) in Jul 2012
Interview
I was did my summer internship in Microsoft India. The interviews were part of converting the internship to Full Time Employment.
I had 3 interviews on different days. My performance in the interviews were not great. But I was given the offer because Microsoft was hiring massively for Bing and review from my mentor was positive.
(I have listed all the questions in the interviews)

You can't draw any amount of petrol from each bunk, but each bunk has some limited petrol. Find if there is any point in the circle from which you can start? If there is one such point find the point.
