I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in Sep 2024
Interview
- Called for interview, mostly system design.
- I got great feedback, they told me they did not have many questions since I addressed all the potential weakness of the design they were looking for, and that I would be hearing back from them soon.
- I got ghosted after 3 weeks, I got an automated email that the position was not available anymore... so I wasted my time on a ghost job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- Standard system design of a scalable application
Had an phone screen chat with an engineer on the team. Lasted an hour and had some tech questions and two coding questions (one in c++ and one in python). Seemed to go well and they said update me in a few days. Never heard back from them.

3 back to back interviews via zoom:
1. Problem solving (leetcode like 2 questions).
2. Object oriented design
3. Architecture and system design
If pass that - another technical interview to define your level .
