I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
Campus recruiting for general software engineer position. First round 2 technical questions on campus. Then 4 questions (1 design, 3 technical) on site. Very interactive and pleasant interview.
Every question with a different recruiter, all technical. Sessions were 45mins long, first 5 mins usually "tell me about yourself", then question and after if you have time you can ask questions. After 45mins you get a 10-15min break.

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.
