Microsoft Software Development Engineer interview questions

It was a very straight forward technical interview, i.e., no behavioral questions were asked at all. My interviewer was SDE II from the Windows 8 phone team. This interview was started with several administrative questions, such as: -your graduation date -whether you have any pending offer right now -which area do you want to work in Microsoft (OS, application, cloud, etc) -which product are you most interested in working on -which programming language are you most comfortable with Then we moved on to the technical part, where he tested my knowledge on the following (as far as I remembered): - what’s quick-sort and the complexity of it -polymorphism and how to implement it -what is memory leak and does Java allow memory leak -what is garbage collection and how does it work

Got the job information through our university job website. Applied online at microsoft university recruitment website. Received an email within one week to set up a phone interview. The recruiter said there would only be some behavioral questions, just to know my skills, experience, and find my fit. In the interview, there were behavior questions + questions about skills, about my understanding of software engineering practice, about what i do out of schoolwork. I told her in the beginning that i do not intend to apply for SDET, but there was a question about software testing.
