Microsoft Senior Software Developer Engineer interview questions

Speaking to the interview process specifically: It was fine. Standard FAANG style feel to it, there was a pre-screen coding session and then 4 rounds of interviews with a mix of behavioral questions and 1 leetcode question. The engineers i spoke to were nice and made the interview comfortable. As for the recruiters/recruiting process: it was atrocious. After i applied and spoke to a recruiter about what i was interested in other recruiters (at least 4) started messaging me all asking me to fill out the same 10-15 question packet. After i finally got that sorted out it got a bit smoother until the interview rounds were complete. All communication fell apart and they began to take forever to respond. They made it seem like i did well and they were just team matching me (actual verbiage from the recruiter after the final interviews: "That being said, you were an overall [SECTION REDACTED] hire so we are just working out the details to find a team within [SECTION REDACTED] that will best suite your experience and skillsets. 😊"). Not long after the recruiter even said he found a team for me, however when we spoke he was under the assumption that i had spoken with that hiring manager, and when i said i had not he seemed confused, cut the meeting short to "investigate", and was never heard from again. All attempts to follow up with everyone i spoke with previously went unanswered.

The people were very nice, offered w ater or te. At the beginning. L ater on I even got a Re fill on that. (water). All in all very ni ce.
