I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Apr 2016
Interview
45 minutes phone interview.I was asked questions about the company (why Bloomberg), programming(why do you want to be a programmer), then about an experience of mine (to describe one experience during which I used C++) then really simple questions on C++ (what is a class in c++, what is a pointer, tell me about arrays in c++)
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
