Welcoming Kavya Sukumar, a developer at Microsoft who would like to share some insights on the interview process and how to crack it!Hello Kavya, thank you for accepting the invite! Our readers would like to know a little bit about yourself, so.. Yup, sure! I currently work as an Software Development Engineer in Test in Microsoft Corp., Redmond.
