Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I spoke with Bloomberg representatives at a campus career fair and scheduled an on-campus interview shortly after.

I had a very positive experience with the career fair representatives, but the on-campus interview was considerably more negative, as the interviewer clearly did not want to be there.

After showing up 10 minutes late, he spent a considerable amount of time during the interview on his phone while I was writing code on a whiteboard and asking him questions.

This interview was extremely off-putting, and I don't believe I'm interested in continuing the interview process with Bloomberg, regardless of whether I'm offered an on-site interview or not.
