- The question you’ve all been asking. The most asked about thing of my LinkedIn DMs.
"Can you tell me more about the hiring process for Microsoft?"
Well, you asked, and I have delivered!
In today’s blog post and RUclips video, we talk all about the steps that happened before, during and after my interview process with Microsoft.
Disclaimer: Before we get into it, I just want to make it clear that this experience is unique to me and your experience may differ depending on the department, role and ever changing times.

Good reminder of how important candidate experience is: the final round with the org leader sounded like a great showcase of company culture.
PS Videos looking awesome!
It definitely was!
And thank you 😁
Thank you for spreading this about a bit. All interview processes are different with different companies. I even have a book about interview questions that my friend Chris gave me. I read a little bit of it. Currently though I am into strategising the success of JADER Ltd, Multitudex Ltd, Lige Ltd (On the shelf at present) and The Buku Platform Ltd. Remember the Malay word for Book is Buku, which I learned aged 7 when we lived in Changi circa 1971/2 ... Nice to see you in your element, again. :) Knowing the tech is 40% / 60 % is communicating what you want, how to get it, and how long. :)
There is a ship called the World, a pub called The Worlds End (probably more than one of these) ... I have been to the Worlds End in the North, although did not have a pint. I would like to go on a cruise on the World. I do not want to fly again really - plenty of that under my belt (or braces) already. I think it is because I need to visit a friend from Uganda in Kenya. This might be in a while maybe 3 years. When you make plans sometimes they do not materialise, sometimes they take a completely different slant. I have never been to Africa. :)
Great job and thanks for sharing your experience. I also noticed the sound quality of your videos improved a lot.
Thank you for the feedback!
I realize listening to your experience that me handing my notice in before I joined Microsoft was a gamble 😅 great guidance to wait until AFTER background checks, not handing it in as soon as you get the offer 😂
To be fair, I was pregnant and so I wasn't taking ANY chances 😂
While I was watching this video I wonder if you plan of sharing a video of a mock interview on how to implement api and endpoints? It going to be very helpful to beginner like me.
I am approaching c# and api
Good jade.. Thank universe.
Could you please share more about pair programming interviews like what kind of task do companies ask and can we use internet?
Yes I was able to use the Internet, for this particular task it was to implement a book store. I had to add a book, get a book and list all books.
@@Jade-Codes alright! So it depends on companies. Btw thank you so much for sharing this helpful video. Please keep making more videos about interviews and all.
Thank you for sharing this, really helpful 🙏🏽
Hi Jade, thank you so much for this video. I have a question about ageism in the tech industry. How bad is the ageism in the tech industry?
Ageism can definitely occur on both sides of the spectrum I've seen, but a good company will have training in place to counteract that
@@Jade-Codes Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. Have a great day.
Hi Jade, as a student I'd like to start writing technical blogs but im not too sure how too sure how to get started as i dont know whether id be qualified to write any topics and dont know what to write about. Do you have any advice on that please?
One thing I would say is there is always someone looking to learn from you. In your situation it might be other students trying to get into your college. You could easily start writing technical content related to the courses you're doing and also your experience of getting into your college.
@Jade-Codes thanks Jade that actually helps a lot with ideas 💡
When do candidates get to skip leetcode problems?
So in the UK I think they decide based on level, amount of applications and per hiring round.
wade wilson relative??? BTW nice video
Congrats "nosliW edaJ"

@@Jade-Codes Would you please bring LinkedIn back online now that you're there...
@@kis.stupid but why would you want that when you can just watch my videos and read my blog?😂
@@Jade-Codes That's checkmate right there. I have no useful response for that, just like LinkedIn. Let me try and click your links without getting Rick rolled
