Process

On-campus booth, quick chat.

Then I did an on-campus, in-person interview. We discussed my CV and previous projects for a while. I was then asked one question, which wasn't very hard.

Next, I completed a full day, in-house interview in Redmond. I went through five interviews in total, all following the same pattern:

  • Discussion about CV
  • Description of previous projects
  • Some included behavioral questions
  • One or two technical questions on data structures and algorithms
  • Some asked domain-specific questions, like testing, etc.
