Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Microsoft (Redmond, WA) en nov 2018
Entrevista
I interviewed with Microsoft at the Redmond office through an employee referral. I first had a phone screen with basic coding, logical and behavioral questions. After this, I was selected for the on-site interview at the Redmond campus. I had five rounds of interviews including a lunch interview over the span of 6-7 hours. It was primarily technical, except for the last interview with a senior technical manager, which also included behavioral questions.

45 mins technical interview with a member of their San fran team. Very relaxed and informal but questions were focused and lots of follow ups. Easy to schedule as was over video conferencing platform
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.
