45min virtual interview. Start with a 10min self-introduction, resume questions, and behavior questions. Then solve one technical coding question in hackerrank with any languages. I need to run the test for the my code. Finally is a 5min Q&A.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. self introduction: describe yourself 2. introduce your experience 3. why Bloomberg 4. resume specific questions 5. coding: given a string with digits and square bracket, return the digit of the longest bracket depth. The bracket depth is defined as the number of brackets enclosed for the string.
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
