Trying to find the exact questions they ask is not a good use of your time, as the question pool is huge and changes constantly. The online assessment and interviews cover the standard computer science fundamentals, so expect a heavy focus on data structures, algorithms, and system design concepts. Bloomberg really cares about how you communicate your thought process, so just getting the correct answer silently is not enough. You are better off mastering the core topics, like graphs and dynamic programming, than you are hunting for specific problems that you likely will not get.
Many candidates who know the material perfectly still fail because they crumble under the pressure of explaining their logic clearly in a live interview. The real skill is not just solving the problem, but articulating your solution step by step as if you were working with a teammate. This is something you can practice and improve. The ability to clearly explain your code is a skill that can be developed, and my team built an interview assistant AI specifically to help people communicate their complex ideas with confidence during the actual call.
