I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Hyderâbâd)
Interview
Online Test, 2-3 Technical Rounds. The interviewers were very uninterested in taking interview as if they were forced to take one. I hope it isn't same for off campus process. Not only were interviewers extremely busy on their laptops during the interview but they were terrible. I wrote properties of node in tree on being asked to write. He writes 's' after 'children' making it 'childrens'. He meant there might be more than 1 child but this is seriously Horrible!
