J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 3 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (Bellevue, WA) en janv. 2011
Entretien
A colleague at MS referred me. I did a brief phone interview and then I spent an entire day at the Bravern office being interviewed by several people as well as having lunch. I thought I did well in all the interviews except for one interview about databases. The interviewer asked me several questions about database theory. I wasn't applying for a DBA job and wasn't aware that the "software developer" job would require extensive knowledge of database theory. At that point the interviewer seemed to assume that I didn't know anything about databases and instead we just talked about agile practices.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
The database interviewer started asking me questions like "why do you normalize" and "what are the different types of normalization"? I've worked with MySQL and SQL Server a fair amount, and I learned about normalization in a university course but couldn't talk about things like Boyce Codd Normal Form off the top of my head.
The interview was a long process. There was first the recruiter screen, which was followed by a 4-loop interview structure that covered technical, behavioral, and system design. The interviewers were very kind and accommodating.

Entretien
After my application to ClipChamp - Microsoft, a recruiter reached out and scheduled my first interview. It was about basic interview questions and background analysis. After that I had my technical interview. The recruiter specifically said that I would be facing medium hacker rank questions. So I prepared accordingly. However, what I actually got was to analyse an application and re work it according to new requirements. I felt like I was set up for failure on purpose. Didn’t even hear back after that interview.
Took a bit longer than I thought, spanning about three weeks from start to finish. After a quick recruiter screen, I had a technical round where I was asked about validating a binary search tree. The wild part is, I had literally seen this exact problem on prachub.com while prepping. It helped me feel more confident discussing my approach and edge cases. There was also a behavioral interview where I shared my experiences, and eventually, I received an offer. I chose to decline it, though, as it wasn't the right fit for me at the time.
