Microsoft Software Engineer interview questions

I interviewed with Microsoft as a Ph.D. graduate. Initial on campus screening. After that I am invited to onsite. Onsite Interview: It was a nice experience. I interviewed with managers and with a director. I got 3 technical questions and one Ph.D. research discussion (after lunch with lunch interviewer) and one resume/background/personality interview. It was unique to meet people with 10 to over 30 years of experience. Interviewing with experienced/expert engineers is a plus I guess. They know what to ask and what to look for in answers. The questions were easy but vague sometimes. Asking questions and verifying your understanding seemed to me a big plus. Overall it was one of the best interview experiences I had.

The interview was very rushed as it was only 45 minutes. Most of the questions were behavioral, that left little time for technical. So, I didn't have time to think through the technical questions. The interviewer was intimidating.
