I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Lund, Skåne) in Oct 2012
Interview
It does not apply to me as I moved to Microsoft during Nokia acquisition. However, during Nokia times interview had two parts. First over a phone convercation regarding my CV and some technical questions. Then I got an invitation and flight tickets to Sweden (I stayed abroad back then) for a short chat and meeting with my future team members.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Something about photography... don't remember that well (it was 3 years ago).
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.
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.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
After my application to ClipChamp - Microsoft, a recruiter reached out and scheduled my first interview. It was about basic interview questions and background analysis. After that I had my technical interview. The recruiter specifically said that I would be facing medium hacker rank questions. So I prepared accordingly. However, what I actually got was to analyse an application and re work it according to new requirements. I felt like I was set up for failure on purpose. Didn’t even hear back after that interview.
