it was very nice, it focused more on the core concepts like oops and DSA and requires good amount of knowledge to answer questions which are at mid to high level difficult
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2023
Interview
Simple whiteboard programming technical interview, they wanted to understand my thought process and reasoning to see if I was a good fit for the role. Some questions were very hard but they explained that the goal was not to be 100% right but demonstraight how I would go about solving the problem.
I was invited by Microsoft to interview for the position of Senior Software Engineer which also allowed remote work, but I ended up not taking the job offer as I was looking for something more challenging.
