Title says it. The v- position has been support related, not coding. Should I apply as a graduate or professional? How much base should I be expecting? What is the best route when I am close to graduating, getting competing offers from various companies? How difficult are the technical questions for this level of experience? Easy/medium/hard on leetcode? Sorry for many questions. I've been lurking for awhile and have been wondering. At first I was loyal to the idea of staying with MSFT and converting from v- to fte but I'm fond of the Bay Area as well, looking for the most $.
Grad school gave me so many tools undergrad did not. Do research even if you don't wanna do research. I find it harder to respect people's 'masters' degree when they don't do a thesis
Back on topic
if you apply to microsoft, you will be interviewed as a new grad within one year of graduation, you don't have a choice there (only advantages). probably 60, best case 61. 110-125k base in Seattle

Avoid teams with only Chinese or Indians especially with a Chinese/Indian manager
Graduate degrees are a waste of time unless you want to go into research.
Disagree. There's a lot to learn in grad school.
There is, but not about being a software engineer. If you want a job writing code, on the job experience is going to be way more useful. Source: did a thesis based masters program
