I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft in Jul 2024
Interview
1st round was conducted in codify platform. You can write code in any compiler and then copy paste the code in codify. Therefore the interview was flexible. The questions were based on data structures and algorithms.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There is a string of length N made only of letters "a". Whenever there are two identical adjacent letters (e.g. "aa"), they can be transformed into a single letter that is the next letter of the alphabet. For example, "aa" can be transformed into "b" and "e" into "t" However, "zz" cannot be further transformed.
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.

Question 1
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.
