Hi all,
i am supposed to take an online test within 3 days for the financial soft.dev position at bloomberg. they havent specified what the test is about. Is it a programming test or is it logic based. any help would be highly appreciated.
 
ok. i didnt find anythng on the application form that asked about languages used. In my resume i have c/c++.
 
They came to my campus last week and also today. For internships, they are strictly looking for people who had an undergrad in Computer science. The job is highly coding oriented. You are supposed to code extensively in C++ and C#. The guy said Unix knowledge is also very important. Hope this helps.
 
BBg use a lot of C, worth boning up on pointers and excessively complex variable definitions is good.
Also there is a good chance they ask you irritating questions on enums, and try to catch you out on the difference between & and && etc.
Also learn the tortoise/hare algortihm
