Microsoft SWE interview questions

A recruiter reached out by email late in August, after which I had a phone screen. In October, I interviewed at Microsoft Redmond. Microsoft provided generous travel arrangements. On the day of the interview, all college candidates for the week (100+) gathered at Microsoft in either the morning or afternoon. The company served lunch, after which we were each interviewed in four forty-five minute, one-on-one rounds. The rounds typically consisted of a brief soft question period (tell me about your experience with X, a time you handled conflict) followed by a technical question period of whiteboard coding.

From 8am to noon, there will be four rounds of interviews. Each round with one engineer from Microsoft. Each round consists of one or two behavior questions including personal projects and work experiences. Then there will one technical question and if you finish early, you have time to ask questions.
