I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Hyderābād) in Jul 2020
Interview
It's got initiated with a couple of calls from a technical recruiter, this was an opening for SAP GTS. During an interview, I had given almost all the answers correct, the interviewer was at the same designation for which I have been interviewing for, I realised the Question was not at the level I was expecting maybe the person who interviewing is not skilled up in the level he is supposed to take an interview and guess what he rejected me where I answered all most all answers right. I still wondering why I got rejected, just a suggestion to recruiting team don't put a panel of the same designation for which you are recruiting it creates a conflict of interest and maybe a bit of insecurity while taking the decision.
Started with a recruiter phone call and a 30 minute phone call with the hiring manager to negotiate a remote role since the job was based in Seattle and the manager agreed. Following up with five rounds of virtual on site. Four of them are coding/design. One of them is behavioral mostly leetcode medium level questions which I finished and I was able to do all the follow up and answer the design and time complexity questions correctly after the interview got ghosted for a whole month and got an automatic rejection email.
