I applied online. I interviewed at MicroStrategy (McLean, VA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Sent a whopping total of 4 assessments to take, most not even related to software development in the first place. Was a total waste of time because some of these questions were very basic logic questions and others were questions like "Spot the logical next set of musical notes given the original pattern" - to which none made sense to an actual musician. The assessments were honestly a waste of time and felt mind numbing to take.

Two online phone screens. Not too much technology staff and very easy algorithm coding questions. Very old technology used there. Whole process is very quick in two weeks and got offer.
Before your actual interview, you'll first complete an assessment. The exam included a total of 22 questions: 20 multiple-choice and 2 coding problems. Both coding tasks were of medium difficulty, similar to LeetCode problems.
