I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft in Oct 2015
Interview
on campus interview, behavioral questions ( tell me about a time when you worked in a group ...) , background information, one technical question, 30 minutes total, easier than i was expecting, but have not heard back yet so i don't know if i will be invited on campus, review time complexity and data structures
The first was a talk with the recruiter, then an online assignment with Leetcode Medium type of question. Finally, the 3 round interview with system design, coding and low level design
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had a conflict with a colleague.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA)
Interview
The Onsite consisted of 2 system design questions and 2 technical questions. This rounds were back to back and they weren't actually ordered, I thought I was doing to be doing technical first but was hit with design at the start.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The design questions made sense for the role (unfortunately I was not aware of the role since I was a general applicant). The two technical questions were not on leetcode but custom questions the interviewers had which were actually not bad.
Five rounds of interview with mostly leetcode medium or hard level problems. It included one design round typical to game design rather than system design. The interview I participa\ted was part of hiring event.
