Candidatei-me por meio de uma faculdade ou universidade. O processo levou 2 meses. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Microsoft.
Entrevista
I had dropped my resume in the University Career fair and they got back to me within a week or so to schedule an interview in my college.
Onsite Interview (at my university):
I had a 30 minute Onsite interview. It started off with why I was interested in MSFT. The interviewer then explained my the 3 different roles (SDE, SDET and PM) and I was asked which particular roles I was interested in. After that, I was given a simple question on Binary trees and I was asked to write a program. I had written a recursive code and was asked about the drawbacks of using recursive programs. And then I was asked to write test cases for my program.
I guess what they were looking for primarily was
1. Interest in the company
2. If I can write good code and make sure there are no room for error
3. How broad are my test cases and the scenarios
After around 2 weeks, I got a mail that I had cleared the first round and they were flying me to seattle for the next set of rounds.
Interview in Seattle:
There were around 15 of us and we were made to sit in one of the conference rooms with food. We were expected to have 4 rounds of interviews with different sets of employees and each interview would last for 45 minutes followed by a 15 minute break. By around 1, there were around 15 employees coming in and calling out a name and they would be interviewing us. The same happened for the next 4 rounds too.
The questions were pretty straight forward and simple. The ones you'd find in the career cup books.
After the 4 rounds of interviews, we were taken to the recreation room where we had Xboxs to play with and to keep our mind off the interview results. They called us one by one and gave the results the same day. And we were given around a week to accept the offer
Perguntas de entrevista [1]
Pergunta 1
There's an m x n array. A block in the array is denoted by a 1 and a 0 indicates no block. You are supposed to find the number of objects in the array. A object is nothing but a set of blocks that are connected horizontally and/or vertically.
eg
0 1 0 0
0 1 0 0
0 1 1 0
0 0 0 0
0 1 1 0
There are 2 objects in this array. The L shape object and the object in the last row.
I had seen this question before and was able to write the code for it. The question that followed was "Lets say you have multiple processors that can do the task parallely for you. How would you divide the task among these processors for the above problem"
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.

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.
I apply online got interview a couple months later. technical and behavioral interview and technical was a leetcode easy with some behavioral and behavioral was typical interview questions nothing on my resume
