Microsoft Senior Software Developer Engineer interview questions

There are a lot of interviews, both technical and behavioural. You need to have a strong technical background and be prepared to explain everything in detail. After the Technical Screening, I had another technical interview with a Romania-based manager, then 4 interviews with employees across the globe.

Interview process may vary across teams. There will be minimum 2 technical round, mostly given some technical challenge or DSA problem to solve. Both round will have similar format. Third (or 4th if 3 technical) round will be manager round and last could be from hiring manager or senior management. Last 2 rounds would have mostly designing or solutioning kind of questions. It may also have design patterns, SOLID principals or any other broader level questions. Mostly likely last 2 round wont have technical questions. Interviews will be mostly generic, independent of languages and technology you are coming with (exception could be if a team specifically needs some skill like react, containerization etc.), but chances are rounds will be on generic skills independent of specific skill.
