I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY)
Interview
Standard Phone Interview - Coding on Hackerrank. Highly unprofessional - they forgot to call me and after 20 minutes of waiting, I had no clue whom to mail because all I got was scheduling e-mail from their HR, and the recruiter who reached out had left the position.
After about half an hour, another recruiter reached out and scheduled an interview in haste half an hour later.
Basic resume walkthrough, although the interviewer Alan didn't seem interested at all. He misguided me in the coding problem, and didn't allow me time to think at all. He didn't let me run my code either. He seemed like he was in a hurry.

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.
5 rounds first 3 being leetcode coding ones and the last 2 being behavioral. The first three are the hardest asking mainly taggeed questions and the rest are not that bad
