Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft en oct. 2010
Entretien
I submitted my resume to a recruiter in a college career fair. 3 days later I received an email about on-campus interview. The on-campus interview took place after 2 weeks and consisted of a 1:1 interview with a technical manager from Windows Media Player Testing team. He was nice and everything. First half of the interview consisted of general questions about my projects and what I was working on. The second part was technical and he asked me a really simple question: Calculate factorial recursively. I coded on a piece of paper and spoke out loud the steps. And also wrote the special case checks and stuff. Then he asked the test cases and I gave the test cases(-ve numbers, characters,etc). Then he asked the complexity of the algorithm, where I stumbled a bit. But he helped me in that and we came up with the answer O(n). After that, I didn't hear from Microsoft in 3-4 weeks. I sent an email to the recruiter after 2 weeks without reply. On the 4th week, I was anxious, as I had an onsite interview with another company and emailed again. I got a reply that I was rejected :(
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Complexity of a program to calculate factorial recursively
It started with a 90-minute online assessment, followed by a technical phone screen with one engineer. The OA covered two medium-to-hard algorithm problems. For coding practice, I mainly rely on "LeetCode" to cover different topics. For company-specific interview preparation, I use "Hack2Hire", "LeetCode Discuss", and "1Point3Acres" to find any recent original questions. All of them are helpful platforms. The phone screen included one coding problem and some discussion around edge cases and time complexity.

I was invited to a technical interview with Microsoft. The interviewer started with a general question: “What happens when you type google.com into your browser?” They asked a few follow-up questions related to that.
After that, they gave me a LeetCode algorithmic question, which was at a hard level. The problem was “Integer to English Words.”

Three tech interviews + one hiring manager VO, most of questions are medium to hard leetcode questions. Ask some questions about techniques you written on the resume. But I think they care more about the match of the research and the job.
