      Software Engineer Interview

      Mar 23, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Mar 2017

      Interview

      I applied online back in Feb 2017. Received an email to provide availability for phone interview after a week. The phone interview was scheduled for 2 weeks later. It went well but didn't receive any email for a week. Contacted the recruiter and was told that I was invited for the in house interview. Due to weather conditions, my onsite interview got postponed by another week. The experience was good, like everyone else describes. Great office, lovely reception. First interview was with only one interviewer. It went pretty well. Didn't really expect me to code in any specific language. After first interview, was told to wait for 15-20 minutes. Second interview was with 2 interviewers. They were less friendlier but still polite and helpful. Could have done better but came up with solution for both problems. Was told to wait another 15-20 mins and was provided a sandwich for lunch. The weird part was having to sit in a conference room for the entire duration of the interview process. After the wait, was escorted out by another HR. That was when I realized that I would be rejected. Even though I was happy with my performance, I probably could have done better. The interview process was good overall.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1) Given two integer arrays A and B, where A is larger in size than B, find the intersection of the two arrays, i.e. the elements that are present in both A and B. 2) Given an unordered list of tasks, where a task is a class that has an id and a parent id, implement a function called killBranch. killBranch would be passed the task id that is to be killed and the unordered list. The function should kill all the children tasks of the parent task needed to be killed and return the updated list. (No brute force solution, or topological sort) 3) Given a set, return the power set. 4) Design question.

      I interviewed at Bloomberg

      Interview

      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.
