I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Oct 2017
Interview
Was offered a phone interview. Received an email 5 minutes before the interview saying they had to cancel. Rescheduled for the week after. Was asked about some projects I had done, some things about memory in java and c, difference between scripted and oop languages. Then was given a technical question, interviewer was very impatient and did not cooperate much unfortunately, though that could be because of the bad phone signal.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a binary tree(not necessarily complete), where each node also has a right pointer, how do you set the right point of each node to the node on its right, and the rightmost node on each level has its pointer set to null.
Fair, from leetcode 150, as long as you grind leetcode would be good. First round was one question. Second round another tech question, if you don’t pass you don’t go to the next interview for super day
