I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Reston, VA) in May 2022
Interview
I did a 4 hour coding round with 4 employees. Each employee asked a coding question and probed my thought process when completing it. The recruiter said they liked me and they would get in contact with a hiring manager. They then ghosted me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me some programming questions that I am not able to share. They also asked me for an example of me overcoming a challenge at work.
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.
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.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft
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.
