Forty to sixty minute interview first round interview. First talked about my resume, interests and education and then went into a few coding questions about data structures similar to leetcode medium questions.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Mar 2021
Interview
The interviewer was very calm and helpful... I was stunned to be asked about the destination route problem. I wasn't prepared for graph-based problems and honestly, after reviewing all the glassdoor reviews (over 50+ and no one got an offer from them), I was less motivated to prep so badly for their test.

Applied through referral link. Had 3 programming interviews, 2 usual leetcode style and 1 system design.
The last one was quite hard for the position of New Graduate and I should have designed a big, scalable system.
