I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Microsoft (Chennai) in Oct 2014
Interview
Applied through college. We had an aptitude test. Then the next round was a group discussion we were given a topic to discuss about. Finally the interview it consisted of some technical questions as well as some general questions. The interviewers were quite friendly. It was a good experience on the whole.
Had a coding round which was Leetcode based questions and many people failed in the first round. It was on-campus drive and only one person made to final round. He went through technical interview, HR interview and landed the job.
