I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Microsoft (London, England) in Mar 2024
Interview
one Recruiter screen and one technical screen by two teams .
I stated I am not proficient in C++ and strong in certain area. One team lead is happy with it and one team lead is not interested.
I followed up with recruiter after 1 and 2 weeks. They told me they are still interviewing others but then ghosted me completely.
I checked the career page and my application disappeared after about 2 months. no email or message.
4 rounds total.
The interview process is a multi-stage process for hiring new employees. It can include one-on-one, group, or panel interviews that are conducted in person, over the phone, by email, or via video conferencing.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jan 2024
Interview
It was initially a quick process, did initial screen with coding and LLM qs, then had 5-hour final round with leetcode medium and lots of behavioral/LLM/system design questions. I got a vague oral offer a few days later (no salary), then got written offer with numbers a week later, and background check finished three weeks later. so I only got my start date four weeks after the initial oral offer. The onboarding process was confusing and poorly organized.
