Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Redmond, Washington

November 1, 2019

Positive ExperienceGot Offer

Process

I had an expedited interview process because I participated in another affiliated Microsoft program the summer before.

The interview process consisted of only two interviews:

A behavioral interview
A "technical" interview

Overall, the interviews were very quick, and I was there for only half a day.

Questions

The interviewer wrote down a method and asked me what was wrong with the code. The method tested my knowledge of asynchronous processes and promises.

Was this helpful?
