      Software Developer Interview

      Feb 17, 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Nov 2015

      Interview

      I applied online and heard back from a recruiter after about a week and a half. We scheduled a phone interview for the following week. A week later I'm waiting by the phone for about an hour and never get a call. I needed to head to class so I shoot the recruiter an email asking what was going on. As I'm in class, the interviewer calls me. It turns out the recruiter told the interviewer a different time than what she had told me. I reschedule for a new time with the recruiter, but she never apologized for wasting my time. Between the time of this email and the actual phone interview, another recruiter emails me asking to set up a phone interview for the same position. It's clear that the recruiters at Bloomberg are extremely disorganized. A week later, the phone interview finally happens. The interviewer calls me from a very noisy area and I have trouble hearing him due to background noise. We code in a shared environment and talk about my background and then run through two coding questions. Two weeks later I get a generic rejection email. No feedback, no apology for wasting my time.

      I interviewed at Bloomberg

      Interview

      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.
