      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MicroStrategy (Arlington, VA) in Dec 2021

      Interview

      I had a phone call with the recruiter. Explained the process and sent an online assessment. The online assessment was 100 mins had two coding questions - both were easy Leetcode questions and 16 MCQs on Data structures and algorithms. The recruiter scheduled a video call interview It is going to be a 60 min interview. The interviewer was a senior software architect at MicroStrategy. Round 2: It was a 60 min interview divided into 3 parts. For the first 25 minutes, the interviewer introduced himself and his role at Microstrategy and the current project he is working on. Then he asked me about my experience and follow up with questions to deeply understand the work I am doing at CITI. He asked questions about my previous experience. He was trying to understand the architectures of the development I was working on etc. The next 15 minutes he asked me questions about Java : - For every question, the interviewer was patient to listen to my answers and at the end was correcting my answers if I made any mistakes. He was appreciative throughout this part of the interview. For the next 20 minutes, he gave me a coding question to solve. The interviewer was not keen on a working code but just wanted to see my approach to the question. Coded this in under 15 mins. The interviewer then was interested to run the code. The code was working for all the cases. In the last 5 minutes, the interviewer was ready to take some questions from me. I asked him about the team structure - team size, dynamics, different roles of the team members that I will be working with, etc. Then I asked him about the amount the time a typical new software engineer gets to ship some code to the production since joining. He patiently answered the questions and the interview ended. Wrote an email to the recruiter about the interview. Received an email from the recruiter saying that the hiring team has rejected my application. Not sure what their reason was. Followed up to ask the reason for rejection but I did not get any response.
