Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Microsoft (São Paulo, ) en mar 2023
Entrevista
interview process was thorough yet efficient, spanning over two weeks. It consisted of an initial phone screening, followed by two technical rounds, and concluded with a final HR round. The technical interviews were conducted virtually. Each session lasted about an hour, with different interviewers. The questions were a mix of theoretical cybersecurity concepts and practical scenarios. One notable aspect was the focus on real-world problem-solving rather than just theoretical knowledge. The interviewers were knowledgeable and provided constructive feedback during the discussions.
