I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
Standard Microsoft interview--you have 4 interviews scheduled--one hour for 3 of them, and and hour and a half for the lunch interview. Interview flow starts out with some softball questions, typically about engineering, or previous experience, and then typically gets into coding questions, algorithms, white board analysis of a system (how to test it). If you do well you land the 5th "as appropriate" interview (typically with a higher level manager).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Start with a random linked list--a linked list with a second node pointer that can point to some random node in the list, or to nothing at all. Implement a method that will generate a deep copy of the list
Expect technical deep dives, coding challenges, and problem-solving scenarios. Questions will probe your knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and software design, assessing your ability to build robust systems. yes yus yes
