Entrevista
I was contacted by a Microsoft college recruiter. I initially applied for a Software Development Engineer Intern Position but because I was in my last year of my Master's degree the interviewer told me that I can't apply for an internship position because after the internship I wouldn't be going back to school anymore.
So she decided to interview me anyway but consider me for a fulltime position. I wasn't sure if I want to move from my country to the States so I guess this thing was a major black ball for me (I guess).
After all the questions were related to the projects I listed on my resume. She asked what was the most technically challenging project I worked for in the past. I didn't review enough my projects because I didn't have enough time and because mostly of them were OS &kernel related and I mostly forgot how I did them and what were the major problems that I had to overcome. So an advice would be to review all the interesting projects that you did in the past in order to answer rapidly and accurately about them. I think this was the major reason that I didn't get an onsite interview (bacause the interviewer couldn't make a clear idea about the projects that I did).
Preguntas de entrevista [2]
Pregunta 1
What was the most technically challenging project that you ever did ?
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.
