Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 8 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Redmond, WA) nel mese di apr 2020
Colloquio
Process took longer than usual. Started off with an on campus interview, where I was asked 3 questions in 30 minutes. I was told that I had passed the interview but the final round spots were full, so I waited 5 months to hear about a final round spot. The final round was all virtual due to COVID-19; I had 3 interviews back to back, with each one being 45 minutes of implementing code.
