It was a good interview and Bloomberg is a great company and I answered the coding questions with intelligence and diligence. I would recommend applying to anyone interested. It is a very competitive process so make sure you study.
The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2023
Interview
the interviewer was super nice and willing to guide me through the questions. Both of the questions were related to BFS and DFS. then follow up is time and space complexity
10min BQ
25min coding
10min questions
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Oct 2023
Interview
The interview lasted 45 minutes i think, it began with behavioral questions. After like 15 minutes we began the technical questions. I don’t remember the first question exactly but i think it had to do with something recursive, the second question was the classic question about comparing two strings and recognizing if they were the same, i took the classic approach: using sort and then comparing them but the interviewer asked to take another approach, i took one using a stack i think. For both questions we didn’t get to coding, it was all semi coding.
