I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Jun 2010
Interview
After completed an online assessment test I was invited for the phone interview. All questions was technical. Interviewer began with simple C++ questions like: what does copy constructor do, what is polymorphism, what is overloading, etc and finished with a more advanced about interprocess communication and STL. The chat over the phone took about 30 minutes and was very friendly.
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
