J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft
Entretien
I was referred by a friend of mine. They took a very long time to get back to me and finally scheduled a phone interview. Unlike most phone interviews where there is a coderpad of some sort that I am coding on, he simply wanted me to describe how something would work to him which was difficult as I had a hard time understanding the interviewer.
After struggling to understand what he was looking for and attempting an explanation he rudely interrupted me. He then said "Normally I would ask more questions but I think I have everything I need. Maybe sometime when you understand these thing you can work for Microsoft." And that was it.
Overall the interviewer was extremely rude, hard to understand, and very pretentious.

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.

The interview was hard, even as a fresher the dsa they asked was hard category after I checked on leetcode. Though I couldn't solve it. Some of the other people who interviewed were asked easy - medium dsa
The interview was a long process. There was first the recruiter screen, which was followed by a 4-loop interview structure that covered technical, behavioral, and system design. The interviewers were very kind and accommodating.
