I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Bloomberg
Interview
Applied through an employee referral in September. A few days later they told the person who referred me that they were going to interview me. I heard nothing from them for a couple weeks. The person who referred me followed up, and they said they were going to reach out soon. I heard nothing for another few weeks. Finally, near the end of October I got an email from HR (not a specific recruiter) asking to set up a phone interview either the week of 11/5 or 11/12. I chose a date in the second week. Then, the next week (last week of October) I got an email from the generic HR address again, alerting me that all the spots for the internship program had been filled and they were cancelling my interview.

Question 1
Identify a 'coolstring' which has the same frequency of every character.
The entire process was a bit chaotic, I spent a bit of time going back a fourth with my recruiter to schedule the interview by the time i was able to i believe they had already moved forward with a different candidate. My interviewer ended the interview early and had no interest in me at all.
