Completely different from typical processes at Google and Meta and other MSFT teams. For every interview, I was asked behavioral questions and 1 case. Highly unusual to get case questions in every interview, and have half the time to answer them.
The interview process involved multiple stages. The questions were centered around behaviorial and strategical approaches to handle technical and business related challenges. It was one of the best experience that I have had in the interview process.

Initial Interviews: These were a mix of behavioural and technical questions.

I learnt a lot about the culture at Microsoft and what they generally look for in their interviews from Product Alliance’s flagship course.
