The interview process

Described in candidates’ own words.

It was an okay interview. There wasn't anything special about this interview. I do not think anything specifically stood out. It was pretty much like all the other interviews I've had before.Candidate-reported process
the interview had four rounds: recruiter round, business transformation round, aiml round, and technical round. No coding rounds. After recruiter everything happened the same day, no presentations. Lots of cloud foundational questions and aiml questions, and also behavioral questions.Candidate-reported process
3 stages split into a recruiter call, a meeting with a manager and a final with a director. Competency based Interview. Understanding the Microsoft ecosystem and leveraging partners to scale deals. Ability to thrive in ambiguity. Solid understanding and knowledge of the UK market.Candidate-reported process
