Financial Applications Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
I had two interviews with Bloomberg.
The first was an on-campus interview, consisting of general questions about my programming projects, basic data structures problems, and a brain teaser.
The second interview was on-site and consisted of two parts: one behavioral interview and another entirely focused on algorithms and data structures.
Questions
I'm recalling a question about dropping two eggs from a 100-story building. I've forgotten the exact wording, but I remember seeing it on Glassdoor previously.
