Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 4 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Microsoft (Bengaluru) em abr. de 2020
Entrevista
4 rounds of interviews. All Technical Designing and data structures questions.
Since it was a covid situation. All 4 rounds are on team meeting. interview process took over 1+ months. It was for Front End Full Stack Dev.
1st round - Data structures and Design a Pagination Component and some general programming questions. Interviewer was good and patiently hearing out.
2nd Round - Data structures and Design a Bing Search bar and some general programming questions. Interviewer was good and patiently hearing out.
3rd Round - Design a LUDO snake ladder.Interviewer was manager and patiently hearing out but she was arrogant but giving some valuable feedback.
4th Round - Interviewer was fully from the front end side no knowledge of back end. He was , arrogant and too much of patience less. Design a google calendar layout and Print the top view of the binary tree and how streaming works.
Even though i answered all the questions in all the round i got a rejected mail in 4th round.It was heart breaking and unbelievable why they have rejected me even though i answered each and every question. I still not able to accept my rejection.
The interview process - particularly some interviewers are knowledge less . they are just aware about there side of technology.
Suggestion - If you are hiring a full stack with general skill don't try to evaluate it in only one tech focused designing.

Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela Microsoft em mai. de 2026
Entrevista
1. Recruiter screen: recruiter was friendly but had their camera off. They asked me about my recent work experience, my strongest programming language, and salary expectations
2. Technical Screen: live HackerRank coding challenge with a team member of the team hiring for the role, over Microsoft Teams. The interviewer had their camera off but was easy to talk to. The coding challenge was a LeetCode-style challenge that required the backtracking algorithm. Interviewer spent extra time aftwards to take questions from me and share information about the team and employer.
3. 3x "Full Loop Interview Technical". The interviewers did not show up to these interviews. I emailed the recruiter who told me that interviewing for the role had been cancelled.
My overall impression of Microsoft based on their hiring practises is the company is dysfunctional, employees are disengaged, their hiring practises are disconnected from the actual job, and they don't care about candidate experience.
Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Microsoft (Seattle, WA).
Entrevista
Moderate. Do leetcode tagged Microsoft questions. They generally ask from most recent Microsoft tagged questions. I applied without referral. Will have a technical screening with hiring manager. Then DSA and System design rounds.
Interview process:
Online assessment (hard level)
1-hour screening call
4 interviews in one day:
Medium-hard LeetCode (OOP-focused)
Medium-hard LeetCode DSA problem
Long system design interview (strong focus on relational database design)
Partner manager interview (AI-focused + behavioral)
The process was technically challenging and well-structured.
However, after the final interview, there was over one month of silence despite follow-up messages. Eventually, I received a generic rejection email stating:
"This decision does not reflect on your potential or the value of your experience."
I would have appreciated more timely communication and more specific feedback after such an extensive process.
