J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (Redmond, WA) en janv. 2012
Entretien
I was contacted by a Recruiter. She lead me to believe that she worked at Microsoft. That was not true. I came to find out that a v- infront of the email address means VENDOR.
I was asked standard technical questions and some problem solving questions. I spoke about my experience and education. I did not answer the weird problem solving questions. I WOULD ENCOURAGE others to do the same.
I spoke with many non native English speakers. The inperson interviews were fine. Once again, I did not do the mind game questions. As potential employees, you can set the stage, you have power. I told one person that I was not going down that road, he did not understand. Microsoft complains that it can't find people but treats people poorly.
It started with a 90-minute online assessment, followed by a technical phone screen with one engineer. The OA covered two medium-to-hard algorithm problems. For coding practice, I mainly rely on "LeetCode" to cover different topics. For company-specific interview preparation, I use "Hack2Hire", "LeetCode Discuss", and "1Point3Acres" to find any recent original questions. All of them are helpful platforms. The phone screen included one coding problem and some discussion around edge cases and time complexity.

Entretien
I was invited to a technical interview with Microsoft. The interviewer started with a general question: “What happens when you type google.com into your browser?” They asked a few follow-up questions related to that.
After that, they gave me a LeetCode algorithmic question, which was at a hard level. The problem was “Integer to English Words.”

Three tech interviews + one hiring manager VO, most of questions are medium to hard leetcode questions. Ask some questions about techniques you written on the resume. But I think they care more about the match of the research and the job.
