Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process was an OA followed directly by a virtual onsite. The onsite interview was a mix of coding and systems design questions. The coding questions were usual LeetCode easy-medium problems. I interviewed as part of a hiring drive at Microsoft.

Questions

  1. Talk in detail about a project you worked on.

  2. Tell me about a time when you disagreed with your manager.
