I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Sep 2013
Interview
I applied online, but there was an event in my campus so I actually had my interview there, two weeks after I applied. The interview was supposed to be both behavioral and technical, but ended up being only behavioral, which was not in my advantage. They replied after a week. The overall experience was nice, as it was my first interview and the interviewer was friendly and nice.
3 rounds of leetcode medium, 2 questions were very easy, the last one was really hard (it was a binary tree question). They asked about space and time complexity. In terms of structures it was straight forward but the question itself was hard
Behavioural round consisted of "Tell me about yourself and why you wanna work for microsoft and resume screening. And technical interview consisted of 2 LC question 1 medium and 1 easy.
straightforward. directly jumped into data structure and algorithm and then a few fundamental computer science questions especially database management system and operating system then 2 or 3 questions related to resume.
