I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Kairo, ) in May 2021
Interview
I recently completed an online assessment for a summer intern position at Microsoft, and overall, I found the experience to be well-organized and challenging. The assessment consisted of a few technical questions that tested my knowledge of programming concepts and problem-solving skills. The questions were presented in a clear and concise manner, and I appreciated the option to switch between different coding languages.

Question 1
it was 1 easy question, one was okay, and the last one was hard (graph problem)
1 coding round with 3 interview rounds. The gap between the coding rounds and the interviews was three days. All interviews were conducted on the same day. The coding round was simple. All the interview rounds were technical, with the final round having a bit of resume discussion.

Question 1
The coding round had 2 problems. One was ad-hoc and the other was a standard BFS. The interview questions were more or less directly from leetcode with the exception of the final round where I was asked an NP-Complete problem. The interviewer was mostly looking at my approach to problem-solving in the final round.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (London, England) in Sep 2022
Interview
I did an online test on Codility, consisting of two DSA questions. About two weeks later I did a virtual interview where I was questioned on more non-technical things. I ended up being put on the waiting list and was eventually rejected.
