J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Entretien
HM decide everything, no hiring committee, joke. Recruiter is laid off during it. And no one seems to know after few weeks. try the amazon principal talks, they seem like it very much.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Tell me a case when you had issue with stakeholder
Feeling thrilled to have accepted the offer, I look back on this interview process as both challenging and rewarding. It began with a technical round where I tackled a complex A/B testing design question, followed by a SQL query on user retention. The final stages included a system design discussion that had me sweating, but honestly, the system design section on PracHub prepared me well. Each step pushed my limits, but the culmination was definitely worth it, landing me a role at Microsoft.

Question 1
Design an A/B test to measure the impact of a new ranking change in Bing, and explain how you would handle network interference between treatment and control users.
Write a SQL query that computes 7-day rolling user retention from a daily events table, then flags cohorts whose week-over-week retention dropped more than 10%.
Phone screen with HR/recruiter. Less than 10 mins. Very basic mostly about role fit and my background and resume. Did not hear back from them at all. Very unenthusiastic during the call
