Microsoft Software Development Engineer In Test (SDET) interview questions

Phone interview was set up approx. 1 week in advance to determine if I was a good fit for the group. The phone interview included many questions around software development lifecycle, test plans, current work environment, programming questions, and other technical questions. I was not prepared enough for the interview.

I had a phone interview with an HR person first and he asked me a few simple behavioral questions and a bunch of technical questions. I heard back from Microsoft after about a month saying I had cleared the phone interview and was invited to interview in Redmond,Seattle. I had 6 rounds of technical interviews. I thought I did well on all of them except for the last one. I heard back from them within a week saying I was rejected but they acknowledged that I had come very close to getting hired.
