Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I applied online via my school's job portal and received a call after two weeks. The interviewer never called at the assigned time, and my recruiter did not bother to inform me about the timing change. I rescheduled the interview and cleared it. I was then called for an in-house interview at Bloomberg, NY. There was no confirmation of tickets or itinerary until two days before the date for the in-house interview. Additionally, there were no instructions or details about the on-site process. Due to a snowstorm, my flight was cancelled, and I had no way to reach their office for my on-site interview. I informed them about this, but I have yet to receive a response.

Absolutely the worst HR and recruiters. They show no courtesy for interviewees, and their communication is sloppy and delayed beyond limits. Even after calling and sending repeated emails, they do not reply.

There is no absolute concern. This is the worst employer. I am not going to consider this employer at all.

Questions

I was given a question to solve on HackerRank Collab Edit. It was a medium-level LeetCode problem involving math.
