It was 30 min Skype interview, only HR questions and one puzzle. The interviewer was in a hurry and kept reminding me of the time remaining. She asked me to explain any one of my recent projects and a question on conflict resolution while working in groups.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Two languages I am most comfortable with, and how would I explain them to a child.
Puzzle: Given 3 buckets all of which are wrongly labelled- one has only oranges, one has only apples and the third has both oranges and apples. You have just one chance to pick a fruit from any of the buckets and have to correctly identify which bucket is which.
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.
The interview was a long process. There was first the recruiter screen, which was followed by a 4-loop interview structure that covered technical, behavioral, and system design. The interviewers were very kind and accommodating.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft
Interview
After my application to ClipChamp - Microsoft, a recruiter reached out and scheduled my first interview. It was about basic interview questions and background analysis. After that I had my technical interview. The recruiter specifically said that I would be facing medium hacker rank questions. So I prepared accordingly. However, what I actually got was to analyse an application and re work it according to new requirements. I felt like I was set up for failure on purpose. Didn’t even hear back after that interview.
