Interview Process
I had a video interview for a software engineer position at Microsoft. The interview consisted of two parts:
- Technical questions: I was asked to solve two coding problems, which were fairly standard and involved data structures and algorithms.
- Behavioral questions: These were primarily focused on my past experiences and how I handle teamwork and conflict.
Overall, the interviewer was friendly and made me feel comfortable, but I was a bit nervous about the coding questions. After the interview, I felt that I performed well on the technical side but didn’t convey my behavioral answers as strongly as I would have liked.
Technical Questions
- Two Sum (Array, Hash Table)
- Binary Tree Inorder Traversal (Tree, Stack)
Tips & Insights
- Practice coding problems regularly to build confidence.
- Prepare behavioral answers that highlight teamwork and conflict resolution experiences.
