I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
Met them at the career fair. Called back for On-Campus Interview. Asked briefly about my resume and then given a standard data structures question. Interviewer was not very friendly. Didn't hear back for several weeks and emailed formerly very nice recruiter asking for an update. Got an unpersonalized rejection email five minutes later with no subject. Didn't seem like they would have told me anything otherwise.
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.
