I interviewed at Bloomberg L.P. (New York, NY)
Applied online. The recruiter reached out. There was one question on binary search and one on class design. I think I answered correctly but didn't move past the first round.

It was very efficient taking over 4 rounds in 5 weeks and I enjoyed my time meeting everyone at Bloomberg. Would have liked to know that the application was filled but just received an automated response. Hope others will have better offers

On campus first and second round interviews. First round was mostly behavioral and resume review with a few conceptual technical questions. Second round was a technical interview with two engineers.

I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg L.P. (London, England)
Very well organized with detailed information on the methodology of the questions, followed by feedback sessions with HR. The first round was a phone interview of 30 minutes with HR, feedback followed the interview and received a positive outcome the next day. The second round included an interview of 30 minutes and roleplay in English and a second language ( do not panic if you finish before 1 hour, mine lasted 45 minutes but received positive feedback the next day). Final interview with senior management, less structured and more like a conversation. Overall it was the best interview process I've been through, HR has been accommodating with scheduling the interviews and detailed in providing information about the type of questions. Make sure to research the company and the role well, and be motivated to grow within the company in other departments.

Second round technical interview at the Bloomberg office in London. First round interview was virtual but the second round was in person. It was a beautiful office and I had very friendly interviewers but unfortunately, it was not meant to be for me.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bloomberg L.P.
HR explained the process and set up a coding interview with an interviewer. Though I solved the problem with correct output, he was fixated on proving how C developers are better than Java developers when the role is for Java. I couldn't believe that such an attitude was allowed to be displayed. I prepared a lot only to get a plan rejection email.
- Just an average question where you can add a list of entities against a key and query it in a certain way.
