I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Arlington, VA) in Mar 2024
Interview
1 day, 4 interviews, 45 min each. All the interviewers were helpful and collaborative. Each interviewer asked general behavioral questions and then asked a coding problem. 2 coding problems in each interview, the last interview had one problem but it was lengthy, so I assume 30 minutes to solve coding problems. and 15 min for other talks.
Other Software Engineer Interview Reviews for Microsoft
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.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bangalore Rural) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview was hard, even as a fresher the dsa they asked was hard category after I checked on leetcode. Though I couldn't solve it. Some of the other people who interviewed were asked easy - medium dsa
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.
