Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Hyderabad) nel mese di mag 2021
Colloquio
Interview Process ::
1. recruiter call
2. online test in codelity tool .
3. 2 technical rounds (Data Structures)
I was able to go through Online Test but was not able to go through first technical round .
I would suggest Microsoft to not only test candidate on DataStructures , if candidate is able to solve the problem without dataStructure you should consider that candidate . Most of the questions asked in MIcrosoft Technical interviews were already available in LEETCODE , if someone already used LEETCODE they will have higher chances of selection.
So i would suggest you to test the candidate in all aspects , Technology , concepts can be learn in a month or two but attitude and character is very important to see in candidate .
