I applied in-person. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Apr 2017
Interview
After I passed one phone interview, I get the onsite interview. There were two guides came to us candidates but they were late for about 15-20mins.
I had two rounds technical interviews. The first round is ok, however in the second round, one interviewer was very nervous and the other was very tired and he always drifted off and let me repeat what I had said. Very bad experience.
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.
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
