      I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      Initial Screening: This might involve a phone call or an initial video interview with a recruiter or HR representative. The purpose of this stage is to briefly discuss your background, skills, and interest in the position, and to determine if you meet the basic qualifications for the role. Technical Assessment: Depending on the role, you may be asked to complete a technical assessment or coding challenge. This could be done remotely or on-site and is designed to evaluate your technical skills and problem-solving abilities. For software engineering roles, this might involve writing code to solve algorithmic problems or completing a coding project.

      Video interviews. Met multiple interesting people in the team. Asked about experience and background. Good process overall. Would have liked to have joined the company but it didn't work out.

      The first step was a call with a recruiter followed by one leetcode easy and one leetcode medium. Overall the process was simple and very straightforward. I would not worry too much about the difficulty of the interview
