I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Princeton, NJ) in Jun 2018
Interview
There were two rounds followed by a phone screen. Bloomberg usually has 4 rounds. So if you find yourself being escorted out after two in-person interviews, it means a reject.
Phone screen: 45 mins, Round 1 inperson - 1hour round 2 inperson- 1 hour
All were technical with few questions about my projects
The second round - discuss the differences between python,java and javascript--this was discussed extensively for half an hour
Other Software Engineer interview reviews for Bloomberg
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
