Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Redmond, WA) nel mese di feb 2019
Colloquio
Awful Interview, even if you answer the questions correctly, they still end up rejecting you because they probably didn't have an open position to begin with. One thing I would say is that I made it to the fifth round and answered all of the questions correctly, Microsoft was just there to waste my time to begin with since I did well on their questions and received positive feedback from my interviewers.
