I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Los Angeles, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
I interviewed with the Platform Intelligence team for a senior software engineer position. After applying I was sent a 75 minute take home test where I had to correct a small program and then write a leetcode medium style solution from scratch.
After passing that, I got scheduled for an "interview day" the next tuesday. It was a 4 interview on-site. If you look up microsoft onsite, it was exactly as described. 3 coding/systems design and one "as-appropriate". The coding problems were reasonable and I liked the interviewers. The as-appropriate went into excruciating detail on a "time you disagreed with a coworker" question.
I got an offer like 3 or 4 business days later for 62 (which levels.fyi says is SDE II, but the recruiter told me is a sr. role).

Question 1
I was expecting some algorithm / coding but the interviewer talked about the product they were working about and then he asked me about my work experience. Out of my work experience he asked to define one of the coolest project I have ever worked on.
