Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft en juin 2024
Entretien
I was able to qualify only until 3rd round.
First was a recruiter call, then a pre-screen and then an interview with the hiring manager. It was a technical+behavioral round involving a Leetcode medium question. No feedback given, despite my interview being 9/10 according to me.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
What is a hashmap? (Followups) How does it work? Design a hashmap. (Followup) How will you optimize it (for ex: optimize hashing function,etc. A lot of discussion about various techniques and data structures)? (Followup) Tell me real-life example of hashmap. (Even though I gave 2 examples, he wanted more, wanted to see how creative can I think).
