Microsoft Hardware Engineering Intern Interview

Post by luciaboyd »

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has interviewed with Microsoft for a electrical (hardware) engineering internship before? I'm not entirely sure what to expect. In the email my recruiter sent, he said to be comfortable with computer science fundamentals, OOP, and data structures, which I feel fine with but I thought it was a bit strange since I thought it would be more hardware focused lol. . Any feedback or comments would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Edit: For people who may be in a similar spot in the future. I had the interviews last week. I wasn't asked any coding questions. I had 3 interviews, and all of them were half behavioral and half technical. Technical aspect was basic questions, e.g. different aspects of analog filters, what is timing analysis and signal integrity analysis. I was also asked a decent amount of questions about the projects I've worked on and other work experiences. Overall, I had a good interview experience and am waiting to hear back. I also did not have a phone interview, just the final interviews.

I don’t think anyone helping in the forums will be able to answer this. These forums are for K-12 students, mostly working on school science and engineering projects. It sounds like this may be beyond high school?

If so, we recommend posting in other general forums.
Good luck with the internship!
