I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
I applied through our university recruiter. It was much easier than going through the online interface. One on campus interview, followed by an on site interview by the team. Found this much easier than working through the online interface, the face time with the recruiter really helped.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given an arrays of length x and 2x, with the array of 2x containing only x integers, move the former array into the larger one and sort.
With that completed, I was told to do it in place, followed by significantly improve the runtime.
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.
