I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Mar 2016
Interview
Received a email about 4 weeks after submitting my resume on a university career fair.
The first round scheduled as phone interview. I was asked an algorithm question and some other technical questions about OOP and data structure.
Then I received an email saying I passed the first round and asked me to schedule an on-site interview at their HQ in NYC. I didn't answer the question correctly in the second round, and a HR escorted my out soon after.
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.
