      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Dec 2013

      Interview

      Applied Online... Phone Interview.. Not difficult. Question 1: Why make data members private and access them using getter and setter methods when you can access them directly by making them public. Question 2 : Given stock prices of n days. Find when to buy and when to sell stock in order to gain maximum profit Question 3 : Given an array of size greater than 'x' and a range 0 to x . Find duplicate elements in the array. Hint. You can destroy the array but the solution should use O(1) space and O(n) time where n is the size of the array. On Site Interview: Interview 1 : Interview with 2 software developers Started with some questions related to my projects Q1 : Diamond Inheritance Problem in C++. Use of virtual keyword. And how are things handled internally. Basically checked my understanding of vtable Q2 : Can you use virtual keyword with destructors? Q3 : Given heads of two linked lists. Find if the two linked lists intersect. Solution should not use extra memory. Q4 : Reverse linked list. Tested concepts of double pointers, pass by value and pass by reference. Interview 2 : Interview with 2 software developers Q1 : In what case would you use BST over a hash table.. Q2 : Insertion in BST Q3 : Find 'k'th smallest element in BST. What extra information would you require here Q4: Given a string which has a lot of spaces beween words . Remove these extra spaces in the string eg: " I love New York " --> "I love New York" Q4 : You get an input in the form [2 lowercase characters , A number] .. eg [aa,10] , [bd, 12].. Given a two letter input, find the last 10 numbers associated with the string.. Design a data structure to implement this without using STL. Basically I was asked to design a hash function. Interview 3 : Interview was with a project manager Q1 : Find the first distinct element in an array Q2 : C++ does not have byte datatype. How would you create this datatype. Q3 : Lets say I have a code currently executing on my machine. I overwrite the code with a newer version. But the older version is still executing. Why do you think this is happening. Interview 4 : Interview with HR General HR Interview
