      Undergraduate Summer Interview

      29 Mar 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berkeley, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Berkeley, CA) in Jan 2017

      Interview

      Hosted by school, interview on campus. After a bit of a wait, went into room with interviewer. We started with some basic questions on what subject(s) I was interested in and why. Then we moved to some example problems on a whiteboard, and then after that to some knowledge on parallelism and big data processing, since I was mainly interested in AI. Then we talked about what the teams were like and what a few of the projects featured.
