I worked at Bloomberg for a 3-month summer internship.
They have lots of events for interns, which keeps it interesting.
The other interns were really cool people who were great to hang out with.
My team consisted of people quite a lot older than me, which made it hard to relate to them. They also didn't talk a lot, which can make it a bit depressing when you're sitting in front of a screen all day. It'd be nice to break up the monotony a bit.
The hours are also very long, and combined with an hour-long tube journey each way, there was really no free time available (aside from weekends), which just really took it out of me.
The interview focused mostly on data structures and the complexity of algorithms. I was asked to rate myself on a scale of 1-10 for C, C++, and Java. Key topics covered included: * Post-order, pre-order, and in-order traversal of a tree. * How
Applied online and was contacted after a couple of weeks. Set up a 45-minute phone interview. The interview included three technical questions, with not much else.
The whole process was good, and everything was handled professionally.
