J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Microsoft
Entretien
I applied for the position at Microsoft's career website. The recruiter reached out to me and scheduled the initial screening round.
1) Round 1: Phone interview (30mins)
Asked about my job background
Solved a string problem in 15mins
2)Virtual Round of interviews(3 interviews)
I got a response from recruiter within few days saying the team is interested in interviewing you further.
This was scheduled for 23rd July. I got an email from recruiter on 20th saying they have cancelling my interview as team has elected to move forward with another candidate.
This is very weird situation and I feel is not appropriate for the team to make a decision on your capability even without the interview.
