Microsoft DevOps Engineer (Mid-Level) Interview Preparation Guide

Microsoft's DevOps Engineer interview process for mid-level candidates typically includes an initial recruiter screening, a technical phone screen, and 4-5 onsite interview rounds conducted by different interviewers. The process evaluates technical depth in cloud infrastructure (Azure), containerization, CI/CD pipeline design, system reliability engineering (SRE) concepts, and your ability to own medium-to-large infrastructure projects end-to-end. Behavioral and culture-fit assessments are integrated throughout. Expect a mix of system design questions, hands-on technical troubleshooting, deep-dive discussions on past projects, and infrastructure architecture challenges specific to multi-cloud and Azure environments.
