I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2020
Interview
Interviewer was very nice and straightforward. We talked briefly about my background and quickly worked n the coding assessment. Interviewer gave assistance, such as asking guiding questions when I struggled at some parts. I was allowed to look up documentation.
3 rounds of leetcode medium, 2 questions were very easy, the last one was really hard (it was a binary tree question). They asked about space and time complexity. In terms of structures it was straight forward but the question itself was hard
Behavioural round consisted of "Tell me about yourself and why you wanna work for microsoft and resume screening. And technical interview consisted of 2 LC question 1 medium and 1 easy.
straightforward. directly jumped into data structure and algorithm and then a few fundamental computer science questions especially database management system and operating system then 2 or 3 questions related to resume.
