J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft (Paris) en oct. 2019
Entretien
I had a phone screen interview. The next steps were most likely other interviews (probably onsite), but I was rejected before reaching the next stages. The interview was not a technical one. I just had to talk about past work experiences, and coding skills.

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.
