Phone screen - incredibly arrogant and not friendly interviewer. Loudly sipped on coffee while cutting me off during the interview. From what I heard initially, Bloomberg is very friendly and collaborative. I experienced the total opposite.
I interviewed for the NY office, and the guy called in via cellphone LATE with very choppy connections. I had to pivot and adjust to another platform for the interview. Passed all the test cases as I solved the two algorithms/data structures question. Decided this company was not a fit for me, and finally withdrew my application. Personally reached out to the recruiter to ask for interview, got one, and never received any further communication.
It was a first round of a leetcode problem and talking through our past experiences and then after that the next round was 3 different interviews with 3 leetcode problems.

This was my first round, I was scheduled for this hackerrank live coding interview within 2 weeks of applying.
The interviewer was not helpful at all with answering follow-up questions. Said he’s not allowed to do that.

Question 1
Giving a string return, the longest substring without repeating.
I think this is a leetcode easy question

I really enjoyed the interview process. It was in-person so it was less intimidating since I could actually collaborate with the interviewer. The questions were a bit challenging but working with the engineers mad getting hints made it manageable.
