I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Feb 2015
Interview
Submit resume through campus career fair. On campus interview 1 week after submitting resume. Two interviewers are very nice. The on campus interview generally ask some basic concepts about OOP, basic data structures, and several programming questions. If pass the on campus interview, there will be a on-site interview. There are several rounds in the on-site interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A few general questions about data structure. Three programming questions. The programming questions are very basic, equivalent to easy to medium in leetcode.
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.
