I applied through university. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
On-campus screening interview. Was fairly casual, but also rushed since we only had a half hour or so. He talked to me about my resume and had me describe one of the projects I had listed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Write a function that returns the nth prime number. For example, nthPrime(1) should return 2 since 2 is the first prime number, nthPrime(2) should return 3, and so on.
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 June 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.
