J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris plus d'une semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft en sept. 2015
Entretien
Applied through school but contacted the recruiter directly, sending him my resume. He told me he'd schedule an interview for me around 3 or so days later I got an email to schedule a phone interview. Questions were overall non technical but still asked for an overall understanding of computer science topics. My interviewer was generally very quiet so it seemed like I was talking to a wall because of the lack of feedback I was getting. At the end, she asked me a brain teaser, which I completely bombed because it was poorly described to me.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Explain recursion to a 6 year old.
Explain a project you've been working on.
Brain Teaser: There are three baskets. In one basket there are oranges, in the other there are apples, and in the last there are both apples and oranges. However, all of these baskets are covered (can't see inside) and all of the baskets are labeled incorrectly. You can take one item out of one basket.

The entire process only had two rounds and it was really simple. Each round was around 45 minutes to an hour with a current Microsoft engineer and they just ask you a typical leetcode style question. There was also a behavioral round that was really simple.

Question 1
The first round was a typically leetcode question that was really easy. The second round was a little bit harder. It was about having a nxn square made out of 0s and 1s and it wants you to compute what the square looks like if it was rotated.

It was a really enjoyable experience overall. Although I didn’t get the position, the interview itself was great, and I truly appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the role, the team, and the company.
