I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Herzliya) in Apr 2025
Interview
Interview day over Teams. You do three consecutive interviews, each interview takes 1.5 hours. In each interview, they ask personal questions and two technical questions. 2 of the interviews were with team managers and one was with a senior developer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Create a function that receives an array of integers as input, and each time it's called, it returns the same array but with the elements in a random order. Each possible scrambled array should have the same probability.
I got a HackerRank home assignment with 2 leetcode questions, one was easy the other was medium-hard. It was a sliding windows, and a buy n products with the minimum coins at start. There were 2 arrays, one of the WC cost of the products and one with the expected cost.
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in Feb 2026
Interview
3 interviews. Only 1 leetcodes (easy-medium) in the second interview. Lots of personal questions, leadership and design patterns.
They were really nice, but at the end they ended up with someone that had more experience then me.
It’s one day with two interviews, and if you move on, you’ll have another two. One focuses on designing a tic-tac-toe (X/O) game, and the other is a LeetCode-style coding question.
