Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
Applied through a referral. Was flown to Seattle for a day.
Four interviews were conducted: two technical and two behavioral.
Microsoft is a decisive company. One side of it is the vibrant company trying to zoom into the next-gen world, while another side is a lagging, huge dinosaur. You can see both of those aspects throughout the entire process, from the interview to onboarding.
