J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (New Delhi) en août 2016
Entretien
First an online coding test on cocubes.com There were 3 questions in the test.
Some who did 3 weren't selected, others who did 2 got selected, so optimisation and lines of code do matter. Results were declared after 1 week. Then a group fly, almost half of the candidates got rejected after this. Three more interviews were held the day.
Final results were declared after 2 days

Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
