Process
There were 3 technical rounds, with no online assessment. The first round was virtual, and the next two rounds were on campus. All of them followed a similar format with 1-2 SWEs asking you 1-2 LeetCode questions (easy/medium in my case).
Questions
Why are you interested in Bloomberg?
LeetCode: decode string. After arriving at a solution, the interviewer also asked about edge cases and to expand my solution to cover those edge cases.
LeetCode: Number of valid triangles given an array of side lengths. A valid triangle would consist of three side lengths x, y, and z such that any two side lengths added together must be greater than the third.
