Interview
was refered by a friend of mine and got called to set up an interview by a recruiter.
1st interview was 1.5 hours with two engineers who asked about my expirienced and specifically a project I worked on lately and then gave me two questions in which I had two find a solution under the restrictions they gave me and write code.
two days later I was called to say I passed and to schedule another interview.
seconed interview was also 1.5 hours with group manager who gave me a mini spec and asked me to find a solution and write code for it. 3 days later I got a call that I did not pass

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.

Interview
After my application to ClipChamp - Microsoft, a recruiter reached out and scheduled my first interview. It was about basic interview questions and background analysis. After that I had my technical interview. The recruiter specifically said that I would be facing medium hacker rank questions. So I prepared accordingly. However, what I actually got was to analyse an application and re work it according to new requirements. I felt like I was set up for failure on purpose. Didn’t even hear back after that interview.
Took a bit longer than I thought, spanning about three weeks from start to finish. After a quick recruiter screen, I had a technical round where I was asked about validating a binary search tree. The wild part is, I had literally seen this exact problem on prachub.com while prepping. It helped me feel more confident discussing my approach and edge cases. There was also a behavioral interview where I shared my experiences, and eventually, I received an offer. I chose to decline it, though, as it wasn't the right fit for me at the time.
