I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Aug 2016
Interview
The team was very helpful at Microsoft, and they were very professional throughout the whole process.
The process was a bit tiring, but that should be expected when interviewing with a big company. It was a total of 4 interviews over the course of 4 hours.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All of the questions were strictly algorithms/problem solving questions
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.
