J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (Bucarest, ) en oct. 2025
Entretien
4 round gauntlet with DSA, OOP, system design and behavioral questions. The weird part is that you have behavioral questions mixed into each round, plus a dedicated behavioral round at the end.

Question 1
DSA was an easy - medium binary tree problem, but a non-standard one, oop was an implementation of a small util library. System design was a problem of migrating a complex backend from on-prem to cloud.
