I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Apr 2015
Interview
The role was initially described as C# / WPF, and F# expert - I did not claim to be expert in any of these - for a trading solution connectivity and integration software platform. The interview was via HackerRank, with the primary interview held over phone, while the interviewer could share coding with me via HackerRank.
Initially for one hour, asked to solve code solutions for questions in C#
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Given a array of a series of characters (char array from string) reduce multiple spaces to a single space, while preserving the other characters. The swapping needs to take place within the initial array.
Give a function, F1(), that returns either 1 or 0 randomly, write a function, F29() or F31(), that returns an event distribution of numbers from 0 to 32.
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
