I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Sep 2013
Interview
Applied on campus and was called for an interview in a week. Got a cursory first round wherein I was asked to implement string copy and had various corner cases to consider. The second round was to print a 2D matrix in spiral. Ended up not answering completely due to time shortage.
15 minutes talking about resume, 45 minutes for 2 medium leetcode style coding questions (using code share), the interviewer was very friendly and communication is even more important than passing all test cases.
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.
