Process

I applied online to Bloomberg L.P. Later, I received an email scheduling my telephonic interview.

There was one telephonic round. After that, I was called for an in-house interview, where I attended two in-person interviews.

Questions

The telephonic round was basically regarding my college projects. I was asked to implement the logic of a project.

In-house interview, First round:

  1. Output of a/b in string format. In case it has recursion, output that part between parentheses ( ).
  2. Find the first and second largest numbers in a series.

Second Round:

  1. Logic to implement the feature 'Frequently used websites' on a browser.
  2. How to find a cycle in a linked list. Why use a fast pointer that goes twice as fast as the slow one, and not thrice or four times its speed?
