Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - New York, New York

October 1, 2018
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process began with a technical phone interview, for which the interviewer was 15 minutes late. A week later, I was contacted about an onsite interview, which I had moved up to the same week due to other deadlines.

I had two technical interviews, with two engineers in each. Overall, they seemed really low energy and not enthusiastic about their jobs or work at all.

I was given a measly lunch in between interviews, but not enough time to finish it. Also, we were expected to just eat alone in the interview room.

After the technical interviews, they said they wanted two more interviews: one with HR and one with a senior engineer.

HR just asked standard behavioral questions and 'Why Bloomberg?' The senior engineer was over a video call and just asked standard resume-related questions. At the end, he asked if there was anything that would stop me from accepting an offer.

Afterwards, I was immediately asked to leave with no tour given, even though they had said one would be provided.
