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.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Oct 2025
Interview
Interview started off with:
- Getting to know each other, "Tell me about yourself"
- Behavior questioning
- Checks your resume
- One or two Technical questions
I believed I did amazing on the Technical but even though I solved the problem, still ended up rejected.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself. What is the proudest project you've contributed or created?
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
