I applied for the internship in late August 2020 and was invited to schedule a 30-minute phone interview in early November. I scheduled the phone call for late November.

The call was with a recruiter and included a mix of behavioral and technical questions.

I heard back a little over a week later from a recruiter to schedule remote Codility interviews. Microsoft asked that I pick a date where I would be available all day, as I might have multiple interviews. I scheduled my interviews for early January.

I had two hour-long technical interviews with an hour break between them. I was asked basic data structure and algorithm questions; LeetCode and Cracking the Coding Interview would be great prep material. Both questions involved trees.

I heard back within a week that I would not be moving forward. The recruiter I was working with answered all of my questions and was very accessible.

What is your favorite Microsoft product, and how would you improve it?
