Expect some combination of:
DSA / LeetCode-style problems (arrays, strings, trees, graphs, DP if they’re feeling dramatic)
System design (if it’s backend or SWE II level)
Practical coding + discussion
Debugging or code review
They’re checking:
Can you think clearly under pressure?
Do you communicate while coding?
Do you actually understand tradeoffs or just memorize patterns?
made it to final round. all technical rounds were from bloomberg tagged. they care about communication process, when i was stuck or wrong i explained clearly what i was trying to achieve
Fairly common process. I didn't prepare sufficiently and got rejected. HR Screen then technical interview where I got rejected. Interviewer was helpful through the process. Padding with words to fill limit now.
Technical Screen. Scheduled a week after applying. Overall very fast and very nice people. Got a very chill interviewer and was expected to solve 2 leetcode mediums in 40 minutes
