Bloomberg Software Developer interview questions

Two on one on campus interview after university career fair. Very friendly recruiter who was enthusiastic and welcoming. Very friendly interviewers who were extremely patient and helpful. Answered additional questions even though I failed the technical question.

Phone tech interview was an unbelievably easy design problem, and the onsite was made up of easy leetcodes but my first interviewer didn’t explain the problem in full to me and let me continue with my misunderstanding. The second round after lunch was easy as well and I got the answer correct for the data structure problem and was ok on the design problem. Very disappointed the first interviewer let me believe I understood the problem correctly. I’d been told interviewers were pretty collaborative so was completely blindsided and incredulous when I saw the problem explained correctly later on the Bloomberg leetcode guide. Ultimately relieved I didn’t get an offer though or I would’ve felt compelled to quit upon hearing about Mike Bloomberg’s bigoted comments and the toxic sexist work culture he enabled. Maybe I would’ve done better had I worn high heels like he suggested women do back in the day. Or maybe I should be spending more time in the library instead of Bloomingdale’s —another great suggestion for women to be taken seriously.
