Had 2 on-sites with 4 rounds each for senior software engineer. Now scheduled a follow up with one of the teams. What does it mean? Close to an offer? Any advice on negotiations/compensation numbers? TC: $250k. DC area. Yoe: 8 #Bloomberg
I recently got an offer from them and yea, a follow up is a good sign. I think you could easily ask for 350k+, all cash comp btw
Oh cool. I had mentioned $300k to the recruiter before interviewing and she said it was on the high end :/ what did you end up getting?
Oh wow, I’m a bit surprised. With 8 YOE I’d expect at least 350k but Bloomberg isn’t known for super high pay ig, although they do have excellent wlb. I’m a new grad and got 185k
Congratulations. Most likely they will try to convince you to join their teams. This means you are getting an offer
Great. Any advice on comp numbers?
You can start with 350. Depending on your interviews and the skills you bring to the team itay be achievable. However be prepared to go lower. I didn't not know exact numbers these days, but 300 should doable
Hi OP, Did you have any system design rounds? I have one coming up, can you share details
Yes. Study message queues and real time processing.

Real talk: in what way private schools are better than public in nyc?
Could you elaborate more on what the interviews were like?
Pretty standard stuff. Leetcode, design, projects i worked on, couple coding questions were dreamt up by the interviewers but easy enough i think.
Thanks, I appreciate it! Hope you get the offer
