I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg
Interview
I got the interview about one week after meeting them in a campus job fair. They asked some basic algo and desgin questions. And they also talked about my previous projects. I didn't do well on the socket programming promble beacuse I cannot remember all the C socket APIs. After the first round (roughly 1 hour), I was brought to the second round, which also takes about 1 hour. Then they said I might have to go to newyork to interview with HR.
You should better be famillar with C++ because I go questions like how to design a sub class. They also use a lot of C++ for their softwares.
BTW, the first and second rounds are all 2:1 interview.

Question 1
Given a sentence and revert sequece of words in side it.
The first round is a phone interview that takes 45 min. After several days I got the email saying that I wad invited to the on site interview in New York. There were two interviewers this time.
I applied online, and few days after, the HR email me to schedule a phone interview date with the interviewer, the first scheduled time nothing happen, so I scheduled another time, then the next time, the phone call came as expected, they only ask me some very simple questions such as what's the difference between java and C++, most of time I talking about my project which the interviewer seems interested in on it too.
All seem going smoothly, however, two weeks later, I was told that the position was already filled.
