I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Jan 2022
Interview
It was an HR phone screening. There is no coding session. Behavior question only. The interviewer was kind. I did a self-introduction and resume explanation for the first part of the interview. Then we started the behavior questions. The last part was the questions that want to ask the interviewer.

Question 1
Do you have time that you had a conflict with your teammate? How did you handle it?

Interview
After submitting an online application, I received a HackerRank assessment after passing the resume screening stage, then I was rejected after completing the assessment and did not proceed to further interview rounds.

Question 1
The assessment consisted of two LeetCode-medium-level coding questions to be completed within 75 minutes.
45 mins technical interview with a member of their San fran team. Very relaxed and informal but questions were focused and lots of follow ups. Easy to schedule as was over video conferencing platform
Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
