The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bengaluru) in Jun 2020
Interview
HRs from microsoft are nothing but unprofessional and impossible, not that they are enough to be careless(for not informing that we have one more round and the panel is already waiting for us)during the interview, after clearing 3 rounds, the next person is oblivious to the solution you are giving and simply asks "i want a DP solution" and says wrap it up as i need to run off to a meeting . You are supposed to atleast discuss with candidate, this is not a one word answer question . Please be professional
