I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Princeton, NJ) in Nov 2016
Interview
A "video interview", followed by an on-campus interview at my college, followed by a "super day" which was a day where applicants who had gotten far enough in the process spent hours at a Bloomberg location going through various activities and another interview, followed by one last interview over Nexi (Bloomberg's version of Skype)
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Cape Town)
Interview
Repetitive process. Interviewed 5 times and was asked the same things at each interview. The people who interviewed me seemed very unprepared. From the telephone interview to the in-house interview, everyone was just winging it.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Feb 2017
Interview
I applied through the website, took some tests and got invited to a recorded video interview.
It was not difficult but I advice to be very prepared about the company and the position.
