The Microsoft SDE interview process involved an initial online assessment focused on data structures and algorithms, followed by multiple technical interview rounds.

These rounds tested my problem-solving skills, coding proficiency, and understanding of core CS concepts like OOP, DBMS, and system design.

A final behavioral round with the hiring manager evaluated my project experience, collaboration skills, and cultural fit.

The process was thorough and aimed at assessing both technical depth and team compatibility.

Given an array of integers, return the length of the longest subarray with a sum equal to zero.

This tested not only my understanding of prefix sums and hash maps but also my ability to write optimized code and explain my thought process clearly.
