another post abour bloomberg interview

hi guys, i am a new grad applying for SWE role at Bloomberg. Couple weeks ago I posted to ask for tips regarding how to prepare for phone screen, and last week, I was informed that I was invited to attend onsite!!!! YAY!!!! I am so excited! thanks everyone who helped! I am again posting this to ask for any tips regarding onsite! Can anyone help? I am super excited about the opportunity at Bloomberg. I would actually accept right after receive an offer . I saw that people would be having third and fourth round if they pass the first two, but what is to do besides solving problems? thanks a lot!

Only the first two rounds are coding... third and fourth round (if u get that far) are mostly non-technical, although it’s possible they might ask you an open-ended design question (using some function in the Bloomberg terminal for example). But mostly culture fit/behavioral (why Bloomberg etc.).

Ah thanks! I will get the behavioral questions ready! Looks like lots of people failed on last two rounds. And practice lots of design questions! Thanks a lot

I also have an on-site @ Bloomberg NYC (SWE new grad). Are system design questions asked during 3rd/4th rounds?

I don’t get why people get so excited about Bloomberg. They’re dinosaurs in the same category as IBM...

Our revenues are going up, while IBM's are going down. I like bashing Blooomberg as much as the next guy, but we are not in the same category as IBM.

Bloomberg pays way higher than IBM, from what I've seen at least
