I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft (New Delhi) in Aug 2017
Interview
Total 5 rounds. 1st round on CoCubes. Fairly simple Data Structures related questions.
Second round at delhi. Microsoft paid for all the travel and accommodation expenses. Didn't clear that round, but heard from friends that it was super tough, related with advanced data structure questions.
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.
