I applied through a referral and received an email a week later asking for my availability for a phone interview. I was interviewed virtually for nearly 45 minutes.

The interviewer asked for details about my resume, posed behavioral questions, and asked some technical questions. Overall, the experience was good, and I found the interviewer very friendly.

After a couple of days, I received an email stating that I had been selected for the final round of interviews and was invited for an onsite interview at the Microsoft Office in Seattle.

On the interview day, they conducted four back-to-back interviews, each with a different interviewer. Each interview lasted from 45-60 minutes, where they asked questions related to Machine Learning, Probability and Statistics, Programming, and questions based on my projects and research papers, if any were listed on my resume.

I don't recall the exact questions they asked. Overall, the interview experience was good. Unfortunately, three days after the interview, I received an email stating that I was not selected.

I was given a real-world example and asked what probability distribution I would use to model the data.
