Overview
I worked in the Multi Asset Risk System team, with both design and implementation responsibilities. I designed and implemented an improvement of an existing feature, which involved a very interesting challenge.
Skills
I learnt C++, and I could improve my system design skills, as well as soft skills such as communication and collaboration.
Responsibilities
Definitely. I made design choices about a feature and a service that is going to be used by teams all across Bloomberg. Nonetheless, I had all the support I needed to make such choices, so I never felt overwhelmed.
Support & Guidance
I had great support, both by my personal mentor and my team.
Culture
The culture is great, chill, supportive, and with great perks. The office is beautiful, and the team very well integrated.
Your Impressions
I definitely enjoyed it. I am very happy about my choice.
Yes
The overall experience is definitely worth the effort to prepare and attend the 4 interviews.
