I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (São Paulo, )
Interview
Terrible. This was for a remote software engineer position in Brazil reserved for PwD (PCD in pt-br). The recruiter failed to identify himself and his position in the emails, didn't use the video, and asked me to just send along sensitive health documents over plain email. On top of that, he described what looked like a high-performance coding challenge through Codility. This was not expected given people with disabilities like me have gone through so much through life. My accommodation requests were declined.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
To solve timed code skill challenges and live coding.
The process was difficult, but the questions were not a surprise. Be well prepared and it is okay. Not many behavioral questions and a lot of technicals which were difficult.
A new grad role. There are three rounds. First is OA, second is technical round and then lastly the final round. Overall was average, just the response time is slow.
