      Financial Software Developer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Apr 2009

      Interview

      Initially there was a C++ Skill test. I had enough Brainbench C C++ free tests. So that really helped me a lot,. In Fact I noticed, some of the questions were as it is from Brainbench tests. I even remembered some of the answers. Each test had 40 questions. And I had 3 minutes for each question. I did well and as expected I got a call for phone technical screening in C++. Phone screening was almost 30 minutes long. Questions about Static members in class, static global variable in multiple files, virtual destructor, multi threading, big endian, little endian etc. I could answer some but not all. Hence that was it. Dint get anymore call. :(
