Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un'altra fonte. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Nairobi) nel mese di gen 2022
Colloquio
It was a short 30 min first-round interview where the questions were mostly based on getting to understand your technical capacity and your experiences. At the end you are given a question and given 5 mins to come up with a solution which you will explain to the interviewer.
The interviewer told me that at this phase they don't really look at the coding ability because that is something that can be taught while on the job but instead they usually look for interpersonal and problem-solving skills without forgetting teamwork of course. Overall it is not as hard as everyone on the internet makes it seem but it is best you be prepared.

I had a technical interview where I was asked to solve the classic 'Climbing Stairs' problem (LeetCode #70), which is a dynamic programming question based on the Fibonacci sequence.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Haifa) nel mese di giu 2026
Colloquio
The process started with an online HackerRank assessment. The main coding question involved partitioning an array of server capacities into K contiguous groups while minimizing the maximum group sum. The solution required binary search on the answer combined with a greedy validation function. The assessment focused on algorithms, problem solving, and time complexity analysis.

Domanda 1
Given an array representing server capacities and an integer K, divide the array into K contiguous groups such that the largest group sum is minimized. Return the minimum possible value of the maximum group sum.
