I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2020
Interview
There was an intial onsite interview in San Francisco. It was fairly straight forward, a leetcode easy problem. The interviewer was not great, as they were on their phone for the majority of the interview. I then got flown out to Microsoft where I had a final round interview.
A leetcode style test with three problems, then three interviews with different managers ( for each it was a coding problem and behavioral questions). Each interview was 1 hour long
