The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Sep 2009
Interview
the process started with a online problem solving test; 30 logic or mathematic questions in a 1 hour time limit. the 1st round interview included a visit of the office, a info session and a short technical 1 on 1 interview; The questions were fairly easy and the interviewer will guide you through if you have trouble. so the key thing is being calm and don't give up. 2nd round (last round) I met HR and a developer. Questions from developer are coding related. If what you put down on your CV is real, you should be fine with them. HR will try to understand your intension of taking the offer and how long you would stay. So make sure you know the job and really want it.

Interview
The online technical assessment is pretty basic. They asked several logic questions, some analytical reading, and some shape manipulation questions. They also had several weird questions like "count the total number of L's in this paragraph". I am moving onto the phone interview this week which is to be more technical.
