daring drift
TL:
10/10 applied(refer)
11/11 1st round invite
12/9 1st round
12/17 onsite invite
1/7 onsite
1/10 final invite
1/17 final
1/24 offer call
1st round:
10 min resume, talked about one experience, 2 coding questions: medium-easy non-tag, medium tag (did not have time but talk through optimal), 5 min ask recruiter
onsite (2 tech rounds + hr on the same day):
tech round 1:
15 min resume, 2 tagged (1 easy 1 medium), 5 min ask back
tech round 2:
15 min resume, 2 non-tagged medium, 5 min ask back
hr (30 min):
hr was late, talked about why company and interesting project (maybe other basic bqs too)
em:
15 min bq (i kinda talked a lot so only 2 questions asked, why company and most challenging project)
15 min technical, non-tag medium
15 min ask back
for many technical questions, I did not give optimal solutions in one try , but was given hints on optimization. Did not get optimal space for 2 of the questions. I did talked a lot explaining thought process

158k base cash, 17k bonus (prorated based on start date) 10k relocation
Annual raises for the first few years is around the ~10% mark and it drops afterward
First promo minimum @ around 3YOE
(its also the only promo, bloomberg does not have a vertical structure)
New grad comp is negotiable with competing offer. Base is non negotiable however they can raise your annual bonus and add a sign on bonus

Seems fairly common to break 200k+ with competing
so I would do it anyway even if you have another offer
