I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2024
Interview
I got matched with two teams after a recruiter reached out on linkedIn. Both were pretty standard phone screen interviews. They went over my resume and asked relevant questions about my experience. Basic Java interview questions mostly. Then they asked 1 leetcode medium coding question. and finally a system design question. Overall the interview was not that difficult but I was fairly underprepared and rusty so I did not advance.
