I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
First-round was the coding round where 3 questions were asked at cocubes platform. I cleared all the basic test cases in coding questions but still was not short-listed for the interview process. There are more test cases at the back that need to be cleared for clearing the round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Reverse and attach the odd nodes of linked list at the back of original linked list without using any temp nodes.
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.
