I interviewed at Microsoft (Denver, CO) in Mar 2024
Interview
I received an email from my direct supervisor, asking if I would be willing to do a quick 20-min call sometime in the upcoming week. When I hopped on, she was congenial and actual spent more time talking than I. We went a few minutes over time. A few days later, I got an email that I had been accepted.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: Tell me more about your current dissertation research?
The interview is about research, takes about 1 h, after that I didnt hear anything back even with followup emails. The recruitment portal is useless, and it never got updated. There is even no HR just with one of the team member from that group.
The Microsoft Research interview focuses on deep discussion of past research, probing technical understanding, experimental design, and reasoning. Expect open-ended problem solving, possible light coding, and evaluation of research maturity and motivation.
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
After I sent the initial email to the recruiter expressing my interest in the position, I received a detailed reply three days later. We have now successfully scheduled an introductory meeting via Microsoft Teams to discuss the opportunity further.
