I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Hyderābād) in Apr 2024
Interview
Process takes place in a single day with all major rounds, also the HR communication is not what you would expect of a big tech company. First you will receive invite for 2 rounds then if the feedback is positive then they will move forward with other rounds. I found the recuiter experience can be improved, by providing constant feedback, instead of just ghosting the candidates with no feedback.
Started with a recruiter phone call and a 30 minute phone call with the hiring manager to negotiate a remote role since the job was based in Seattle and the manager agreed. Following up with five rounds of virtual on site. Four of them are coding/design. One of them is behavioral mostly leetcode medium level questions which I finished and I was able to do all the follow up and answer the design and time complexity questions correctly after the interview got ghosted for a whole month and got an automatic rejection email.
