I started sweating when Zou Xin brought me his second book after returning to China, The Beauty of Programming - Microsoft Technical Interview Experience. Zou Xin is really good at "torturing" people. These questions are comparable to the ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty. For example, the first interview question "The CPU occupancy rate curve follows your command" requires the interviewee to write a program to control the CPU occupancy rate curve in the task manager to always display as a straight line or a sine curve. Later, I searched through various search engines and found that many friends have come up with answers. I also took some friends' answers from the Internet to my computer for testing. I especially admire some friends' thinking ability and innovative ideas. I believe that if many friends have the opportunity to interview at Microsoft for the first time, the first question they encounter is such a tricky question. Not only will they sweat, but some people may even want to swing the mouse and hit the interviewer.
The CPU curve is still the same curve, and the task manager is still the australia phone number data manager, but friends who ask this question and friends who can answer this question need to think a lot, and often some details can test the real skills of these friends.
I have also seen some interview questions from other companies, such as discussing the difference between the event mechanism of Java and the event mechanism of C#? What is the difference between overloading and overwriting? Use the Master and Theme mechanisms in ASP.NET 2.0 to write a simple personalized web page. Through these interview questions, we can see the focus of each company in recruiting talents. Most IT companies recruit code workers, as long as they are proficient in using tools and familiar with syntax. They hope that the recruited employees can start work immediately after simple training. Microsoft's interview questions reflect Microsoft's emphasis on basic research.
