I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Egypt Lake-Leto, FL) in Jan 2025
Interview
The Microsoft interview process typically includes an initial recruiter screen, one or two technical phone interviews, and a final onsite (virtual or in-person) interview loop with 4–5 rounds. It focuses on coding, data structures, algorithms, system design (for senior roles), and behavioral skills using the STAR method. Strong problem-solving abilities, technical depth, and cultural fit are key evaluation areas. Successful candidates receive an offer with potential for negotiation.

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.
