Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Microsoft (Cambridge, MA)
Colloquio
People in Microsoft know about the popularity that they have and so they don't really care about you. The final round of interviews that I got was extremely disorganized. Although I arrived punctually, no one in the reception knew about where my interview was supposed to be, my recruiter wasn't responding and I ended up waiting for an hour in the reception before someone came and grabbed me.
Then 3 interviews with Microsoft employees followed. Another misunderstanding because although I applied for Software Engineering position, my interviews were with Program Managers and for Program Manager position. Pretty awkward.
I know that you are led by how recognizable this firm is, but think twice if it's worth it.

Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Space Complexity of Traversal, also explain Morris Traversal
The entire process only had two rounds and it was really simple. Each round was around 45 minutes to an hour with a current Microsoft engineer and they just ask you a typical leetcode style question. There was also a behavioral round that was really simple.

The first round was a typically leetcode question that was really easy. The second round was a little bit harder. It was about having a nxn square made out of 0s and 1s and it wants you to compute what the square looks like if it was rotated.

It was a really enjoyable experience overall. Although I didn’t get the position, the interview itself was great, and I truly appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the role, the team, and the company.
