The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft in Sep 2008
Interview
The phone interview consisted of a 1 hour pre screen phone conversation. It started off by the interviewer asking basic questions about some of the things listed on my resume. After that, the interviewer asked deeper into some of the projects I worked on, and moved onto more specific technical questions about my skills in programming in C++. Finally I was asked a technical brain teaser question.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked to write an algorithm in C++ to sort an array. The function I was to write was to take in a string of letters "b" and "r". b = a red ball and r = a blue ball. The function was to return an integer with the least number of swaps needed to separate the balls to be next to their own colors...
So for example, RBBR would return 1, since you only need to swap one of the letters to be RRBB or BBRR.
Expect technical deep dives, coding challenges, and problem-solving scenarios. Questions will probe your knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and software design, assessing your ability to build robust systems. yes yus yes
