Bloomberg on-site for new grads

I have an on-site coming up with Bloomberg for new grad SDE. Does Bloomberg ask system design questions for new grads? Could not find on Glassdoor.

Memory Management in C/C++, and C/C++ programming stuff

If you say you don’t know c++ no one will ask you c++. That’s ok too

So Bloomberg employees get a Free terminal?

Bloomberg JIRASlayer Oct 28, 2018

Yes

Damn that’s awesome. Love the keyboards and monitor.

I was asked a system design question that involved design patterns. I wasn't expecting it and told the interviewer that I did not have any experience in system design. Fortunately, the interviewer helped me with the solution. Got the offer a week later :)

So it was not like design Twitter, but more of like design a parking lot?

Exactly.

I had two DS/algo technical rounds. No system design was asked to me.

If you say you know c++ they will ask you memory management, vector resizing, etc... They will also ask you 2 white board style coding questions ds/algo

No. We don't. Not sure if you have phd. But for masters and bachelor grads.. no. If you want to be 100% sure ask recruiter.
