Interview
I had an HR interview and 2 other technical interviewers. the first one went great, however, the second one did not. I didn't like the fact that I didn't get feedback! I was informed that I'm not getting an offer but no further details were provided.

Interview
Home exam as the first step. 2 technical questions, both were pretty simple that were common in interviews according to the web, and there was not an answer afterwards. The platform was Codility which was comfortable.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jun 2021
Interview
Very bad experience as the screening interview was outsourced to a separate company (not from Microsoft). Questions involved were for instance "scales and splitting a 20KG rock into 4 so you can measure from 3-40KG" IIRC. The behavioural interview thus did not at all evaluate my eligibility for the position.
