I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Mar 2018
Interview
I applied online, and then got an telephone interview. In the same week, I was informed that I passed the telephone interview. Then I was invited to attend an on-site interview. After one week, I was told that I did not pass the interview. The whole process takes about 3 months.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Telephone: 1. write a phone book class 2. write a function to test if a string contains valid parentheses
On-site: 1. given a string, delete all substring where there are three or more same characters
2. implement a binary search tree
3. C++ knowledge, such as smart pointers
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
