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.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Beijing, Beijing) in Jan 2022
Interview
First, I had a ten-min coffee talk with one of their software engineer. Then I was told to schedule my next interviews. I Got two rounds of technical interviews. Solved all coding problems smoothly and had very lovely talks with the interviewers. However, got rejected several days later.
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
