I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Dec 2022
Interview
Overall I had a very strange and IMO unprofessional technical screen. The interviewer focused the interview on my undergraduate education instead of my relevant experience, despite me being 5+ years out of school. Interviewer was also quizzing me on my C/C++ trivia and did not leave enough time for the LeetCode question. The interviewer was also discouraging me from using my preferred language because they were not familiar with it despite being told by recruiter emails that the interview and the position would be language agnostic.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Dec 2022
Interview
Applied though their career website. Invited for first round of technical question. As usual interviewer talked about their team and introduced. For technical round, leetcode hard problem was given. Problem was welsh alphabet sorting
Similar to other reviews here except I interviewed with two teams and oh my god it was bad experience. No real values or culture that they try to portray. Wasn't informed there is no manager round again coz it was maybe same manager that I talked to with the first interview. I actually aced most rounds in the second set of onsite. Will get the feedback soon. Overall I did not see presence of culture that bloomberg talks about. Will not interview with them again. Atleast with not the group that I talked to.
