I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Sydney)
Interview
Round 1- Standard interview process with questions to do with data structures and algorithms. Difficulty centered around medium to hard leetcode. Would recommend practicing a fair amount since we had to solve 5 questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode Medium to Hard questions on DFS, graph traversal and DP
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.
