Only made it to the phone screening phase. I believe there is a technical interview and a behavioral interview after this. The recruiter was very nice and was super supportive because it was my first interview ever.

I definitely overthinking the process since it was with Microsoft. The interviewers were super helpful and kind. My interview was easy, I was asked very simple HashMap problem because I have not taken a DSA class before.

The interview went smoothly and was not too difficult overall. The questions asked were fairly straightforward and focused on fundamental Python concepts. For instance, I was asked to reverse a string, which involved using basic string manipulation techniques. Another question was about solving the "Two Sum" problem, where I had to find two numbers in a list that add up to a given target. These problems required a good understanding of Python's built-in functions and data structures, but were manageable with my current skill set. Overall, the interview experience was positive and tested my basic programming skills.
