Software Development Engineer In Test Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
I applied as a PM, but they set an interview for an SDET position. The interview process was great, though.
Had a phone interview with a recruiter where we talked about my classes and projects that I've done. The recruiter was really nice and friendly.
They flew me up to Mountain View a couple of weeks later. The first interviewer asked me to write atoi() and merge two sorted linked lists, which I did correctly.
My interviews went downhill afterward, though...

Microsoft Work Experiences
- 4.0Nice company; less exciting productSoftware Development Engineer In Test • Former EmployeeMountain View, California, United StatesMarch 8, 2012Pros: Nice company culture; nice & smart colleagues; work-life balance.Cons: Not so exciting product. There is some potential politics you should be very careful about. People have to learn how to show themselves. Performance reviews will replace some people every year, this is for sure, especially for the Mountain View branch. I heard about several cases where a manager has finally "walked out" people from the workplace. So, please keep on checking in your code changelist, keep on raising your voice in email threads. Also, please do not make even a little mistake, which will be written into the performance review.
