Interview
First screening interview with the recruiter.
She asked background questions and few easy technical questions
It was a phone interview, and it took like 15 minutes. She said she will contact in a month, but she haven’t contacted me over two months, and I am still waiting.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2022
Interview
There is no tech question in the first Phone Interview.
The interviewer is a recruiter, so I think she doesn't know much about the software. And she was asking me while typing something on the board, I think she is writing something about me on their system.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Why do you start programming?
2. Tell me about the two projects you're impressed with. What kind of problem and how to solve it?
3. If you encounter problems with others in the teamwork, How to solve them?
4. The two languages you are best at, why?
5. Have you learned Algorithm, Data Structure, or OS courses before?
Three rounds. Increasing in difficulty. Final one wasn't technical at all. The other two involved multiple algorithmic and solving questions. There was one weird 2-d array question. Overall wasn't too bad.
