I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dublín, Dublín) in Feb 2017
Interview
Local campus interview. Basic information + case-scenarios questions about collaboration mostly.
On-site interview. 4 rounds of 45 min each. Every round consisted of an introduction of the interviewer, a few personal questions, programming challenges, testing questions. In between interviews, us interviewees had a chance to talk and get some refreshments. Everyone was kind, and overall I got a good impression.
In a two-dimensional array, containing 0s and 1s, find the largest coherent group of 1s (two 1s are coherent if they are placed next to each other in a direction N, E, S, or W).
Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bangalore Rural) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview was hard, even as a fresher the dsa they asked was hard category after I checked on leetcode. Though I couldn't solve it. Some of the other people who interviewed were asked easy - medium dsa
The interview was a long process. There was first the recruiter screen, which was followed by a 4-loop interview structure that covered technical, behavioral, and system design. The interviewers were very kind and accommodating.
