The interview process at Microsoft was structured and insightful. It began with an online coding assessment focused on data structures and algorithms, followed by one or two technical interviews. These included problem-solving questions and discussions about system design, OOP concepts, and past project experience. The interviewers were friendly and encouraged me to think out loud, making the experience engaging and supportive.

The hiring process consists of a HackerRank home exam, followed by three technical interviews covering LeetCode-style problems and system architecture. Once this is done, you will have a final HR interview.

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.
