I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Jan 2014
Interview
I applied online and received an email a week or so later to schedule a phone interview. The phone interview consisted of two technical questions about C/C++ (what is the difference between C++ and Java) followed by an online coding question (below). A few days later received an email to schedule an on site interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Write a program that verifies that a binary tree is a binary search tree.
The first round is a phone interview that takes 45 min. After several days I got the email saying that I wad invited to the on site interview in New York. There were two interviewers this time.
I applied online, and few days after, the HR email me to schedule a phone interview date with the interviewer, the first scheduled time nothing happen, so I scheduled another time, then the next time, the phone call came as expected, they only ask me some very simple questions such as what's the difference between java and C++, most of time I talking about my project which the interviewer seems interested in on it too.
All seem going smoothly, however, two weeks later, I was told that the position was already filled.
