Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Bloomberg (Londres, Inglaterra) en may 2016
Entrevista
The whole process of evaluating candidates can be the best described as "completely random". I've already applied to Bloomberg for a similar position a year ago and was easily able to get through two rounds of technical interviews and an interview with a PM and a team lead. This time around I was turned down right after the very first technical interview. I believe it can be safely stated that according to Bloomberg this means that I got WAY WORSE over the course of the year and probably lost all of my near-decade C++ experience.
The only thing for me to decide right now is if I want to apply in a year again to see how far I'll be able to get that time.
Preguntas de entrevista [5]

Difference between a pointer and a reference in C++? When would you use one instead of another?
What does the "static" keyword do? How does the "static" keyword affect a source-file-level variable? The latter question turned out to be asked in a completely lame manner, 'cause the interviewer basically wanted to know about "external linkage" as opposed to "internal linkage".
Given a set of classes and a small function that uses them, figure out what will be printed on the screen. A typical construction/destruction order C++ question.
