      Hardware Engineer Interview

      19 Dec 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft

      Interview

      Took about month to hear from them. Email described that your papers have been read and your interview is being scheduled. Next week the recruiter invites to a meeting the next day. 1st meeting with the recruiting manager. Sadly not invited to proceed. I was asked during the interviewing about skills that I did not have.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Have you been been in charge of installation/investment processes when getting new equipment?

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Microsoft (Taipei)

      Interview

      Not too technical, only a few simple oral questions about coding skills. Other questions are behavioral, such as asking what's your biggest challenge so far or what is your strength/weakness.

      I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      I was directly invited to the final round. Three sessions followed, each lasting 45 minutes, with a 15-minute break between them. It was a rigorous process but an exciting experience overall.
