I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Super easy, went straight from application to final round (seems normal for swe interns (specifically full stack)). Final round consisted of two interviews back to back, mine was with people from the same team. One was a senior manager while the other was a newer hire (also prev, an intern). Both asked normal behaviorals and a Leetcode easy each (both array traversal).
online assessment, at web called Codility easy-mid leetcode question.
with time limit and you are not suppsosed to leave the site when solving the online assessment. got it at 2022
2 rounds of online interview in total. The first round covered implementation of ML metrics and the second round covered past projects. The process was very quick. I got the offer in four business days.
