Video call interview. I was asked personal questions about myself and was finally asked to answer a riddle. The interviewer was nice and explained to me about the continuation of the process
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There are three boxes, one contains only apples, one contains only oranges, and one contains both apples and oranges. The boxes have been incorrectly labeled such that no label identifies the actual contents of the box it labels. Opening just one box, and without looking inside the box, you take out one piece of fruit. By looking at the fruit, how can you immediately label all of the boxes correctly?
The phone screen was straightforward. Asked about technical experience working in teams and explaining a concept to a 5-year-old. You should have taken classes on object orient programming and data structure.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in Nov 2021
Interview
