Entretien
First step was a phone screening with the recruiter.
Then, a 2-hour long online programming challenge, as part of this, there were two challeneges, one of them focused on complexity.
After this, there were three 45-mins long interviews, back to back, with 15 mins break between them. Each one of them was focused on a specific topic: System Design, Object Oriented Programming and Algorithms.
All interviews had a behavioral and a technical component.
After these, the final interview was a fully behavioral one.

Entretien
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 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.

After my application to ClipChamp - Microsoft, a recruiter reached out and scheduled my first interview. It was about basic interview questions and background analysis. After that I had my technical interview. The recruiter specifically said that I would be facing medium hacker rank questions. So I prepared accordingly. However, what I actually got was to analyse an application and re work it according to new requirements. I felt like I was set up for failure on purpose. Didn’t even hear back after that interview.
