Overall, it was a positive and professional interview experience, though the interviewer was on the stricter side. Unfortunately, I was dealing with an illness and wasn't able to prepare as thoroughly as I wanted to, which left me feeling a bit off throughout the conversation. Despite not feeling my best and facing a tough interviewer, the process was well-structured.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Jan 2016
Interview
The Interview scheduling process was a total mess. I had two no shows of the interviewer due to various reasons and was no prior information as the interview has been cancelled or been postponed. I had to mail the HR every time and get it rescheduled. The HR team was really disorganized.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It involved code share in hackerrank and the choice of programming language was left to you.
Fairly simple. Phone call then onsite. For onsite it was 10 min office tour follow by 1 hr interview then 1 hours system design and 30 mins manager interview. Interviewers were nice and the recruiter was accommodating.
5 rounds first 3 being leetcode coding ones and the last 2 being behavioral. The first three are the hardest asking mainly taggeed questions and the rest are not that bad
