      Software Development Engineer In Test (SDET) Interview

      4 Dec 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Dec 2010

      Interview

      I handed my resume during a Kinect information session. About two weeks later, I received and email from Microsoft say that a recruiter had recently review my resume and they are very interested to speak with me to learn more about my personality and skills. They sent me a time table to fill in and asked me to complete a technical survey (like a quick test). The survey was ok and for some questions I couldn't answer, I could search on internet. When the interview come, the interviewers ask me about my previous coop experience, my job hunting so far. Then she asked two other questions, 1 was how to test a keyboard, the other was a scenario: Let say I'm the head of the Microsoft library. One day Bill Gate phone me and ask if a book he wants inside the library. I quickly check the computer and it says that the book is available, I picked up the phone and tell Mr. Gate that the book is in. He said he will be down in 10 mins to pick it up. We hang up the phone and I go to pick up the book. But the book is not there and I can't find it. What would I do?
