I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Suzhou, Jiangsu) in Mar 2021
Interview
2 rounds of coding interview.
The 1st round contains 1 leetcode medium 1 leetcode hard.
The 2nd round contains 1 leetcode medium. I spent 20 minutes to come up with the solution and write the code. Then we spent 10 minutes on testing and finding the bug in my code caused by some edge cases.
Besides, we talked about past experience and internship.

I applied through their website with a referral, after a month or so they sent me a home exam, I think about a month after that i had 3 interviews in the same day, each one around 1:15 hours.

The hiring process consists of a HackerRank home exam, followed by three technical interviews covering LeetCode-style problems and system architecture. Once this is done, you will have a final HR interview.

Question 1
I had a technical interview where I was asked to solve the classic 'Climbing Stairs' problem (LeetCode #70), which is a dynamic programming question based on the Fibonacci sequence.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft (Haifa) in Jun 2026
Interview
The process started with an online HackerRank assessment. The main coding question involved partitioning an array of server capacities into K contiguous groups while minimizing the maximum group sum. The solution required binary search on the answer combined with a greedy validation function. The assessment focused on algorithms, problem solving, and time complexity analysis.

Question 1
Given an array representing server capacities and an integer K, divide the array into K contiguous groups such that the largest group sum is minimized. Return the minimum possible value of the maximum group sum.
