I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Manipal) in Aug 2020
Interview
An Online Programming round held on campus, followed by two technical interviews and one HR interview. The interviews were held a week after the initial programming test. It was stressful but fun.

Question 1
The technical round consisted of questions mostly on data structures and algorithms and some language specific questions. The HR round was mostly about my projects and some generic situational questions.
I applied online and heard back from a recruiter to set up a behavioural/coding interview time.
The question was more data structure and optimization rather than arriving at the right answer
