J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (Boston, MA) en nov. 2013
Entretien
A recruiter contacted me through linkedin and asked me if I am interested in applying for Microsoft intern. I submitted the required application materials and they scheduled me for a one-hour interview. During the interview, the interviewer asked me some behavioral questions and talked about some projects I have done. Then we moved on to technical problem solving, which is pretty standard.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
1. How do you test a keyboard?
2. Given nine items and one of them is heavier than the others, how do you find the heavier one using a scale twice?
The hiring process started with an online assessment that focused on problem-solving and coding skills.
After passing the assessment, I was invited to a series of 3 back-to-back technical interviews.
Each interview was primarily centered around data structures and algorithms, with questions similar in style and difficulty to LeetCode problems.
Interviewers also evaluated problem-solving approach, code quality, and the ability to explain thought processes clearly while coding.
Overall, the process was structured, technical, and heavily focused on algorithmic problem solving and communication skills.
