I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Jan 2023
Interview
The interviewer stood me up twice. We had to reschedule twice. An interviewer finally showed up, and he was knowledgeable and kind, no complaints there.
I got an email saying to expect a date for an on site interview, but later an email saying all vacancies were filled and to consider applying for a future opening. It was quite disheartening given that it took so long to get an on site interview because I got stood up twice. A month after the original interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Hashmap related question and some basic data structures.
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
