I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh) in Dec 2023
Interview
The HR is very unprofessional. They just asked me to provide the schedule for the interview. I asked some questions before deciding the times for interviewing, but they did not answer. Instead, they automatically assigned the interview time for me. The interview was suck too, I feel like the interviewer did not have enough training for this activity. They asked to open an online ide to compile code. I did interviews at Google before and this one at Microsoft was very suck compare to it in all perspectives.

Interview
After submitting an online application, I received a HackerRank assessment after passing the resume screening stage, then I was rejected after completing the assessment and did not proceed to further interview rounds.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The assessment consisted of two LeetCode-medium-level coding questions to be completed within 75 minutes.
45 mins technical interview with a member of their San fran team. Very relaxed and informal but questions were focused and lots of follow ups. Easy to schedule as was over video conferencing platform
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.
