I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Microsoft (Israel, TX) in Mar 2023
Interview
The home test entails two questions to be completed within 70 minutes. These questions are structured akin to Leetcode problems and are administered through the Codility platform. This format challenges your problem-solving skills and coding proficiency within a time-constraine.

The hiring process started with an online assessment that focused on problem-solving and coding skills.
After passing the assessment, I was invited to a series of 3 back-to-back technical interviews.
Each interview was primarily centered around data structures and algorithms, with questions similar in style and difficulty to LeetCode problems.
Interviewers also evaluated problem-solving approach, code quality, and the ability to explain thought processes clearly while coding.
Overall, the process was structured, technical, and heavily focused on algorithmic problem solving and communication skills.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
The interview process begins with an online Codility assessment which includes two leetcode problems - easy/medium. After about a month I had three interview rounds of about 45 minutes each. About 15 minutes are spent for some behavioral questions about me, working in team, projects etc. The rest of the time is for leetcode problems, i would say medium. I got the interview results after a week, but it can take longer
