Entrevista
Initial step was a 30-minute on-campus interview at my university. From there, took actually quite a while (3+ weeks) to hear anything back. This delay was the only negative part of the process in my eyes.
Once I heard back, they set up a date and confirmed that it would work with my schedule. They flew me out, gave me a great hotel room, rental car and reimbursement for food. Despite the rental car, a bus was available on the morning of the interview to bring me to Microsoft's campus so I didn't have to worry about driving.
The interview itself consisted of lunch, followed by 4 45-minute interviews. Between each interview was a 15 minute break to get snacks and drinks - this was extremely helpful in making this process easier.
Afterwords, the recruiter informed me that I would hear back by the end of that week, and then actually got back even earlier than that - this was great as I didn't spend a long time waiting for a response like with other companies.
Very well done interview process.

Pregunta 1
discussed projects I had worked on followed by typical tech interview questions
It started with a 90-minute online assessment, followed by a technical phone screen with one engineer. The OA covered two medium-to-hard algorithm problems. For coding practice, I mainly rely on "LeetCode" to cover different topics. For company-specific interview preparation, I use "Hack2Hire", "LeetCode Discuss", and "1Point3Acres" to find any recent original questions. All of them are helpful platforms. The phone screen included one coding problem and some discussion around edge cases and time complexity.

I was invited to a technical interview with Microsoft. The interviewer started with a general question: “What happens when you type google.com into your browser?” They asked a few follow-up questions related to that.
After that, they gave me a LeetCode algorithmic question, which was at a hard level. The problem was “Integer to English Words.”

Three tech interviews + one hiring manager VO, most of questions are medium to hard leetcode questions. Ask some questions about techniques you written on the resume. But I think they care more about the match of the research and the job.
