Great Team, Challenging Project
Great Team, Challenging Project
My internship is virtual this year due to the pandemic, but I feel that Microsoft is trying its best to make it a comparable experience for the interns. The team is exciting to work with and very accommodating. I worked on a challenging project, which took much effort but allows a good work-life balance, and I feel myself contributing to the team. Working hours are customizable. There are many online intern events, even more than a regular year. The experience surpassed my expectations, especially under this special work-from-home condition.
It's a big company, and it's very well structured, meaning that it can be complicated to get used to all the procedures or get in touch with people outside the immediate group.
I visited the employee cafe during my on-site. The food is good, but it's not free; employees need to pay for lunch, which is not the case in other tech companies, as far as I know.

It was one round, two interviews: one technical and one behavioral. It took about a month to get the interview request and a week to hear back. The behavioral round also had some minimal technical questions.

I applied online and received an email to do two interviews back-to-back: a technical interview and a behavioral interview. The process started with a group call where other interviewees and I listened to a presentation. I received an offer a few day

Chill, ngl. The interviewers were very respectful and seemed to care a little more about my experience, both in school and professionally. I'd say it was amongst the smoothest interview experiences among the big tech firms.
