The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2024
Interview
Was sent an online assessment. After completing, I received an invite to interview about 3-4 weeks later. Interviews consisted of 1 screening call, followed by 3 hour-long interviews with team members, each consisting of a mix of programming, technical questions, and behavioral questions.
The recruiter was helpful, and she gave me good tips on what to expect and how to perform well in the interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Are you familiar with SOLID principles? Can you describe [one of the principles] in detail?
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.
