      Principal Software Development Engineer Interview

      25 Feb 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bellevue, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Bellevue, WA) in Jan 2017

      Interview

      Applied online got a call from HR(who was pretty professional and nice) and was scheduled for an interview in 2 days. I immediately had a feeling that the interviewer was absolutely not interested in either conducting the interview or had already made up his mind not to select the candidate. He asked me a very basic question, which I did in 40mins with test case and all but it is now a m9nth and have not heard back from them. The HR should have at least had the courtesy to give a feedback. I suggest having two or more people on the phone interview panel so that people can not manipulate the process of hiring talented and hardworking candidates.
