The interview process at Microsoft was structured and insightful. It began with an online coding assessment focused on data structures and algorithms, followed by one or two technical interviews. These included problem-solving questions and discussions about system design, OOP concepts, and past project experience. The interviewers were friendly and encouraged me to think out loud, making the experience engaging and supportive.
