The Microsoft intern program is truly fantastic. Although there is variation in experience depending on what team you are on (a pretty random process), I had a great team and manager who gave me an impactful project.
There is great WLB and interns were not overworked at all. So many fun events like Puzzle Day, and it is amazing to be among so many smart interns.
Great benefits! Super high return rate as well!
No free food. Some of my friends in the internship had bad managers or teams, and it all is random based on what team you get.
The interview process involved one phone screen followed by four back-to-back onsite rounds. As this was a new grad role, there was no system design; all interviews were coding and behavioral. I received an offer quite quickly.
The process involved a first-round interview (1 interview) on campus, applied for through the school website. Passing this stage led to a flight out for final-round interviews (ranging from 3 to 5 interviews) at the main campus. - 2015
Day of technical interviews with 3-5 people. These covered: * Coding questions * OS architecture * Design * How would you test X?
