I got a summer internship offer from microsoft two days ago. So excited, yeah, still... I studied so hard for the interviews, so the offer carries special meaning! During my prep process, reviews on Glassdoor helped me a lot. So I am here to share my experience, and hope it'll be helpful to other job/internship seekers. Round 1 phone interview: 1. properties of good code 2. tell me about your projects 3. how did you test your projects. 4. how to test a keyboard. 5. You come home and realise that you forgot your key, how will you try to get in. Round 2 onsite interview: 1. a deck of cards is represented by an array of integers. how do you implement Shuffle function. Test your function. 2. how to test a phone. 3. tell me something about your favorite technology product. Is there anything on it you wanna improve. 4. how to test a game. 5. Suppose today, you have a bunch of meetings, and some projects are due, and some coworker is asking you to help him out. how would you prioritize? 5. how to divide a chunk of memory two-dimensionally into pieces of memory of different sizes. come up with the data structure. The onsite interview was such a memorable experience! Seattle is an amazing city. Hope my review helps! Good luck!

It started with a 90-minute online assessment, followed by a technical phone screen with one engineer. The OA covered two medium-to-hard algorithm problems. For coding practice, I mainly rely on "LeetCode" to cover different topics. For company-specific interview preparation, I use "Hack2Hire", "LeetCode Discuss", and "1Point3Acres" to find any recent original questions. All of them are helpful platforms. The phone screen included one coding problem and some discussion around edge cases and time complexity.
