I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bengaluru) in Feb 2020
Interview
I applied and got interviewed in Microsoft Bangalore , HR was very polite and handled well , first interviewer also was very polite and most of the questions asked were related to trees and stuff first interview went well , the second interview was with a scum he showed up very late on top of if he didnt respond to my greeting instead he started as if its a war , the problem with this guy is he had a fixed implementation in his mind and he wasnt willing to listen or go through n understand my code, instead of giving an effort to understand the code he said, I dont think it will work n stuff , its not worth to work in such teams where people are not willing to listen and expect fixed answers , anyways I have an offer with AMAZON and google process is going on
This is what happened. The recruiter reached out to me for some hiring event. She canceled twice. Both times I had to WFH or take some time away from work. The last time she canceled was after I waited 10 mins and pinged her. The response was classic. You are too senior for the job posting and ill keep your resume on file if there are opportunities that are suitable for you. Microsoft hiring community - At least have some decency to treat other's time with respect.
There is a reason why your hiring process has got a bad reputation.
