Microsoft Interview Experiences
Principal Software Engineering Manager
I had four rounds of technical interviews, followed by a hiring manager round. The questions were mostly around designing solutions, and the interviewers focused on what the candidate knew rather than what was missing, which was really good.
Principal Software Engineering Manager
The interview experience was pretty bad. One interview went on for a long time, with questions that weren't relevant to the new role. After the interview, the team didn't get back to me for a long time. They only responded after I asked for feedback
Principal Software Engineering Manager
Coordination by the recruitment team was not very smooth, but the interviews themselves were. The process typically included rounds for coding, design and architecture, people management skills, and leadership.
