I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in Dec 2024
Interview
Through a federal. Two 45 min interviews. One PM and on technical. The two interviewers were very nice and it was overall a good experience. I would say just make sure you know you’re data structures and algorithms and you’ll be fine.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They have two mystery functions and made me walk through what they’re doing. I was then asked to find repeating letters in a string and how I could count them.
The entire process only had two rounds and it was really simple. Each round was around 45 minutes to an hour with a current Microsoft engineer and they just ask you a typical leetcode style question. There was also a behavioral round that was really simple.

Question 1
The first round was a typically leetcode question that was really easy. The second round was a little bit harder. It was about having a nxn square made out of 0s and 1s and it wants you to compute what the square looks like if it was rotated.
