Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Microsoft (Seattle, WA) en oct 2015
Entrevista
Was given a phone interview that was mainly behavioral based, but was also asked some simple programming questions just to get a general idea of what I know. My recruiter got back to me saying that I would be getting an on-site interview. Was put on a random team for an interview, and was given four interviews over the course of four hours.
Stage 1: Take-Home Assessment – A 1-hour coding assignment consisting of two technical questions (one Easy and one Medium).
Stage 2: Virtual Interview Day – A Zoom-based interview day comprising three consecutive interviews.
Star method completely end to end with 3 interviews in the same day. It was online and then we were split into rooms. You mess up one and you mess up all
