Candidatei-me por meio de uma faculdade ou universidade. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Microsoft em abr. de 2012
Entrevista
Interviewer called me. This was the first interview (phone). The interview consisted of two questions: 1 problem solving, and 1 design question.
Problem Solving question: You are given 9 marbles. 8 weigh the same. 1 is heavier than the rest. You are given a scale. The max number of weighs you can do using the scale is 2. How do you determine which marble is the heavier one without weighing more than twice.
Design Question: How would you design a watch for University students?
The rest of the interview consisted of usual behavioural questions.

Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Microsoft (Hyderābād) em jan. de 2026
Entrevista
Not a great experience with interviews taking 1 month to complete. Despite ongoing communication, the role did not move forward, reportedly due to approval constraints. The overall experience highlights a gap in aligning internal approvals before progressing candidates to advanced stages.
Clearer communication and better alignment internally would improve the candidate experience

Questions on Project Experience and Thought process
Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Microsoft (Redmond, WA).
Entrevista
The interview process is grueling and I get why people do it but its more awareness, know that you'll spend an entire day and meet several people, so it's important to be mentally and physically prepared. Eat a good breakfast but not heavy stay hydrated. This was just for a PM role it's their standard process I imagine executive level is another thing altogether

Tell me about a time you didn't agree with someone who was a stakeholder on your project and how did you handle that?
Very smooth, thoughtful interview process. It showed the recruiter really cared what I had to contribute and asked great followup clarifying questions. Would definitely recommend everyone try an interview with them even if it doesn't pan out.
