Colloquio
I received an interview after giving them my resume during an on campus visit. They promptly contacted me in a few days saying they were interested. I got an on campus interview with a Software Development Engineer. It was a 30 minute interview in which he asked one programming questions. I had to write the code on the board. It wasn't too difficult and he continued to probe my mind while I wrote code such as "why this method, how would you test this, is this the most efficient". I ended up getting a pretty good solution and was confident I did well. Although I was not offered an on-site interview.
Thinking back on what I would do differently, I would ask more clarifying questions, and more clearly explain why my solution is optimal. I get pretty nervous sometimes which causes me to not explain terms as clear as they can be. However it was a good experience and good interview practice.

Domanda 1
Write code that would shuffle a deck of cards. Explain why your solution is optimal and how you would test it.
It started with a 90-minute online assessment, followed by a technical phone screen with one engineer. The OA covered two medium-to-hard algorithm problems. For coding practice, I mainly rely on "LeetCode" to cover different topics. For company-specific interview preparation, I use "Hack2Hire", "LeetCode Discuss", and "1Point3Acres" to find any recent original questions. All of them are helpful platforms. The phone screen included one coding problem and some discussion around edge cases and time complexity.

Colloquio
I was invited to a technical interview with Microsoft. The interviewer started with a general question: “What happens when you type google.com into your browser?” They asked a few follow-up questions related to that.
After that, they gave me a LeetCode algorithmic question, which was at a hard level. The problem was “Integer to English Words.”

Colloquio
Three tech interviews + one hiring manager VO, most of questions are medium to hard leetcode questions. Ask some questions about techniques you written on the resume. But I think they care more about the match of the research and the job.
