Process

I got the interview through university career event applications. I guess you have a better chance than applying online if you apply through your university.

The interview had two rounds. The first round was mostly about my background and what I like and don't like about Microsoft, and how I could improve it. This was in addition to some technical questions and some design questions, such as designing a clock for blind users.

Questions

Questions about hardware, memory allocations, and pointers!
