I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jul 2024
Interview
I had 2 interview rounds
1st -> I was asked Spiral Matrix
I solved successful and interviewer was satisfied and happy.
2nd -> First I was asked to arrange array elements in alternating order
Eg. 1 2 3 4 5 -> 1 5 2 4 3
Them I was asked LFU which I was not able to implement perfectly.
So I didn't got selected.
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.
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.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
After my application to ClipChamp - Microsoft, a recruiter reached out and scheduled my first interview. It was about basic interview questions and background analysis. After that I had my technical interview. The recruiter specifically said that I would be facing medium hacker rank questions. So I prepared accordingly. However, what I actually got was to analyse an application and re work it according to new requirements. I felt like I was set up for failure on purpose. Didn’t even hear back after that interview.
