Interview process went smoothly. I had three rounds of interviews and was officially offered the position the next week. Confidence and honesty are key to a successful interview with Microsoft. Good luck!
Pretty easy questions, more focused on vibe than experience. Asked to sell a pen to the interviewer. Overall not a bad process. They will fly you to the North Ryde office and you will get to meet your future team too.
