Bloomberg interview questions

I applied in Nov 2024 and received an email for a 1st round HR interview at the beginning of Jan 2025. The 1st round interview was 30 mins w the HR recruiter where they asked about my past experiences and skills and they laid out the rest of the interview process: 2 technical rounds and a final behavioral round. The 1st technical round was 1 hour and consisted of questions about databases, taxonomies, and looking at some graphs. After those, I had to solve 2 python coding problems which would probably be labeled easy on leetcode. The next technical round was also 1 hour and a full coding round in Python. They gave a dataframe and asked me to use Python and Pandas to solve questions that they had. (Ex. Fix a typo in one of the columns, how many individuals are in the dataframe). The final behavioral round was with a senior manager and consisted of questions about my experiences and classes. They also asked about my motivations for this role, company, and industry. The following week, I received an email about a follow up call and was then offered the position. For the 1st technical round, I recommend going through all of the LinkedIn Learning courses that they reccomend and practice some leetcode easy questions. For the 2nd technical round, I recommend using Stratascratch and practicing the easy and medium pandas questions.

First: “phone screen” w/ one engineer — tell me about yourself then 2 coding questions. simple graph traversal and design a class under constraints. Subsequent interviews: 2 engineers per interview. 2 coding questions. Leetcode Medium + custom question **2nd interview, one of the engineers barely spoke a word of English and made things very, very difficult
