J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft en oct. 2024
Entretien
The first round Interview was timed for 45 minutes. The inetrviewer didn't waste any time and started straight with a DSA question after a small chat. It was a DSA question which was a Dynamic Programming question if tried to be solved with the most optmized solution but the brute force approach was encouraged by the interviewer which was supposedly a Recursive approach.It was a little tricky to code.
The interviewer was friendly and helping at every step, also helping or hinting to think in a direction which can be said as a good discussion.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
1 question about interpreting a string message from its concatinated and distorted form. A spy message interpreting problem to what it originally could be.
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.
