I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Hyderābād)
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!
Interview questions [1]

Stage 1: Take-Home Assessment – A 1-hour coding assignment consisting of two technical questions (one Easy and one Medium).
Stage 2: Virtual Interview Day – A Zoom-based interview day comprising three consecutive interviews.
Star method completely end to end with 3 interviews in the same day. It was online and then we were split into rooms. You mess up one and you mess up all
Maximum subarray questions+ oops + dbms. find the contiguous (connected) sequence of numbers within a 1D array that has the largest possible sum, a classic computer science problem solvable efficiently with Kadane's Algorithm (Dynamic Programming/Greedy) in O(N) time, handling positive, negative numbers, and returning just the sum. Variations exist, like finding the maximum product or handling 2D arrays,
