I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Richardson, TX)
Interview
It was okay. The interviewer was not scary and asked a leetcode easy question. The topic was on overlapping intervals. It started of with some basic get to know you questions. And a few questions on your Resume. Then 45 mins of live coding.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Only one. There are overall 3 technical rounds. The interview question was based overlapping intervals.
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
