I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Calcutta) in Aug 2016
Interview
total five round first coding round second fly round then three face to face interview
those who did any one question correct and other two question passing for half of the testcases in coding round get selected for fly round then in fly round there were two question in pen and paper mode then who did both were only selected for the p.i
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
seggregate odd and even integers from a link list
find trailing zero in factorial
Stage 1: Take-Home Assessment – A 1-hour coding assignment consisting of two technical questions (one Easy and one Medium).
Stage 2: Virtual Interview Day – A Zoom-based interview day comprising three consecutive interviews.
Star method completely end to end with 3 interviews in the same day. It was online and then we were split into rooms. You mess up one and you mess up all
Maximum subarray questions+ oops + dbms. find the contiguous (connected) sequence of numbers within a 1D array that has the largest possible sum, a classic computer science problem solvable efficiently with Kadane's Algorithm (Dynamic Programming/Greedy) in O(N) time, handling positive, negative numbers, and returning just the sum. Variations exist, like finding the maximum product or handling 2D arrays,
