I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dublin, Dublin) in Apr 2013
Interview
I applied on the website. After 2 weeks got an answer back from them . I had to complete one technical evaluation form (check if two strings are anagrams , test cases , how would test headphones, design 3 classes for building , floor and store). I submitted the technical form and they got back to me after another 2 weeks to do an online interview .
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Questions about a project I did , what I used , limitation , complexity
2. A question on binary trees , least common ancestor ; algorithm , java code , test cases . After I came with the first solution they asked me how would I do it faster.
A couple of questions on white box and black box testing in relation to the binary tree question
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bengaluru)
Interview
OA was taken, it was easy-medium consisting of a string problem and a DP problem. Technical Interview 1 was taken where they asked tree traversals using iteration and construction of trees using traversal

Question 1
Space Complexity of Traversal, also explain Morris Traversal
The entire process only had two rounds and it was really simple. Each round was around 45 minutes to an hour with a current Microsoft engineer and they just ask you a typical leetcode style question. There was also a behavioral round that was really simple.

Question 1
The first round was a typically leetcode question that was really easy. The second round was a little bit harder. It was about having a nxn square made out of 0s and 1s and it wants you to compute what the square looks like if it was rotated.

It was a really enjoyable experience overall. Although I didn’t get the position, the interview itself was great, and I truly appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the role, the team, and the company.
