Process

I applied online via their job portal. The recruiter contacted me a week later to schedule a phone interview with an engineer.

The phone interview began with introductions, questions about why Bloomberg, and a discussion of projects from my resume. The technical question was relatively easy.

A week later, I received an email to proceed to the next round(s) of interviews. Specifically, there were two technical rounds and a meeting with someone from HR.

After my last meeting ended, I had one more interview scheduled with an engineering manager a week later.
