Interview
I applied online through the Bloomberg website, then received a request to complete an online test. It was fairly easy, just consisted of some basic logic questions (rotate this object, count the number of 'i's in a paragraph...). Then during the phone interview, I was asked about previous programming projects and experience, as well as some basic brain teaser and role playing questions.

Interview
It was not very good. The interviewer had a big attitude. I was aksed what is functor. I asked him if it is the same as function object because I know what is function object but not sure functor is just another name. His response was I am interviewing you....

Interview
Three steps:
(1) Online C++ test.
(2) Phone interview by two people at once -- brainteasers and programming Q's.
(3) Interviewed by 3 people, one at a time, at their offices (one was HR person in a bad mood). More mathy and programmy Qs mostly. Thought I did OK. No offer.
