Applied with no referral got to the first interview. I faced two LeetCode medium problems in my initial interview. Despite the interviewer being helpful, I couldn't solve them well enough to progress to the next round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
2 leetcode medium problems and come up with their analyses.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Oct 2023
Interview
One LC medium. Went thru my resume. Asked some basic computer networks questions. The interviewer was kind and professional. I prepared too much on leetcode doing the hard questions in their tag but none of them was asked.
It was straightforward, but the EM was a bit cruel during the interview process. He cut me off mid-sentence and didn't let me to finish what I was about to say. Other than that, the technical rounds were pretty good tho, all the SWEs were very nice to me and assisted me to finish my questions.
