I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in July 2014
Interview
Online application, phone interview, video conference interview as I was not in London at that moment, passed to the final interview, which is still ahead of me.
All interviews were with people from the Sales & Analytics team, not HR. The two interviews were quite similar - main emphasis on why Bloomberg, how is it different from competitors, why this job and not bank (I have a degree in banking), then how to sell the terminal to non financial company, how to sell it to a customer if he can get it cheaper from T. Reuters.

Question 1
Most unexpected question was about Bloomberg Order Management System and the use of it by asset/wealth managers i.e.: what happens when I want to invest in a stock, what does the wealth manager do?
I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in June 2024
Interview
6 month interview cycle so it takes a while to actually talk to managers. The trader was not the nicest and would laugh after interviews. Overall a really long process
