I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2015
Interview
Had two rounds of interviews. The first one was super easy (basically solved a couple of straightforward questions and talked about the projects mentioned on the resume) and the second one was on-site and more involved (had four interviews and all were technical with quite difficult questions).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Technical questions on topics such as recursion, arrays, and strings.
Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bangalore Rural) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview was hard, even as a fresher the dsa they asked was hard category after I checked on leetcode. Though I couldn't solve it. Some of the other people who interviewed were asked easy - medium dsa
The interview was a long process. There was first the recruiter screen, which was followed by a 4-loop interview structure that covered technical, behavioral, and system design. The interviewers were very kind and accommodating.
