The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (New York, NY) in Jan 2023
Interview
I had a brief phone call with the hiring manager to discuss my background, skills, and interest in the role. We also discussed the company culture and the responsibilities of the position. I had a technical interview with a panel of engineers where I was asked to solve coding problems and discuss my approach to software design and development. We also discussed my experience with specific technologies relevant to the role.
Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bangalore Rural) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview was hard, even as a fresher the dsa they asked was hard category after I checked on leetcode. Though I couldn't solve it. Some of the other people who interviewed were asked easy - medium dsa
The interview was a long process. There was first the recruiter screen, which was followed by a 4-loop interview structure that covered technical, behavioral, and system design. The interviewers were very kind and accommodating.
