      Software Engineer Interview

      13 Sept 2011
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Apr 2011

      Interview

      I applied to the company through my school's center for career opportunities. After applying, I received an email saying that I had been chosen to interview and that I needed to select a time for my Interview. I selected a time for the upcoming week. The interview was set up in my school's job interview room and consisted of me being interviewed by two developers for the company. The interview was a straight skills test and did not involve any behavioral interview questions. The developers were very curt and cold to me throughout the interview. I was not asked anything other then technical data structure and algorithm questions. Many of the questions were worded strangely, so when I asked for further clarification I was met with the interviewers glancing at me disapprovingly and then the question was repeated back to me verbatim. Once they were finished with asking questions, I was asked if I had any further questions. I asked a few questions then the interviewers quickly ended the interview. Overall I absolutely hated the interview. The developers were cold and terse and definitely not good choices for interviewing for college internships. They cared more about the answers they wanted to hear and not better answers.

      Question 1

      What are the differences between a stack and a heap, name the different methods that a stack is comprised of, and code a basic algorithm for the stack's method.

      Interview

      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.
