Meet with Microsoft at my University's career fair and gave them a copy of my resume. I also went to a few other events they held in the next few weeks. Eventually, they reached out to me to schedule a first round interview. The interview was on campus at our career center and was bout 45 minutes in length. My interviewer asked behavioral questions for about 15 minutes and then it was 30 minutes of coding challenges.

It started with a 90-minute online assessment, followed by a technical phone screen with one engineer. The OA covered two medium-to-hard algorithm problems. For coding practice, I mainly rely on "LeetCode" to cover different topics. For company-specific interview preparation, I use "Hack2Hire", "LeetCode Discuss", and "1Point3Acres" to find any recent original questions. All of them are helpful platforms. The phone screen included one coding problem and some discussion around edge cases and time complexity.
