I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Hong Kong) in Apr 2015
Interview
After submitting the online application I got an email from Bloomberg a month after about the interview. Before I was confirmed on the interview, I had to provide contact details, graduation date and What I think Analytics was in Bloomberg's perspective. I gave an answer with 2,3 sentences about the role then was invited for an office interview.
It was a group interview with about 10 people and each person had to do a short introduction about themselves, talking about name, school, what they are doing currently and one interesting fact. After that, we were asked to come up with one stock to recommend. But the main purpose of this exercise was to as a group, we needed to ask the interviewer 10 questions and recommend two stocks based on what each of us wrote down for the recommendation and the answer from the questions. So we asked things like "What is the time horizon for the investment?" "What is your risk profile?"
Then each person was given a fairy tale to see rank which character was the most favorable. Then the interviewer asked us to provide a group ranking that does not overlap with any individual's ranking. After that, we were broken up into two groups to debate why the group ranking makes sense or not.

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
