I was referred to Bloomberg by a friend who they had offered a job.

The first step was a phone interview, which was somewhat easy. There were a few technical problems only, followed by being prompted to ask him any questions I had. In other words, the usual.

A few days later, they asked me to fly to New York for an onsite interview. I had two interviews that day, both with two developers. I thought I did rather well, but apparently I did not, as shortly thereafter someone arrived to escort me from the building, telling me they'd be in touch over the next few days.

Two days later, I got an email saying they weren't going to give me an offer.

Say how you would construct a VM.

Basically, how would you go about writing a program that runs another program, which can call malloc() and free().

Start with a block of memory, and handle the program's memory for it.
