Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Microsoft (Boston, MA) en oct 2019
Entrevista
I was contacted by a recruiter to schedule an interview just days after applying.
Interview was conducted on campus and lasted 30 minutes, recruiter planned for a 5-minute introduction, 2 programming problems (10 min each) and 5 minutes of questions which seems almost impossible compared to the industry standard of 45 minutes for introductions/questions and 2 problems (5 + 20 + 20). Interview questions were reasonable but too difficult considering the timing.

45 mins technical interview with a member of their San fran team. Very relaxed and informal but questions were focused and lots of follow ups. Easy to schedule as was over video conferencing platform
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.
