I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Skillman, NJ) in Dec 2012
Interview
Multiple rounds with either one or multiple interviewers in each round. Interviewers are usually team leaders or managers in the company. One round they ask technical questions and ask you how to navigate on a Bloomberg screen. Another round asks behavioral and brain teaser questions. Each round lasts about 30 to 45 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Where would you put a coffee machine in a car?
How do you explain a vending machine to someone who hasn't seen or used one before?
Video call with 2-3 rounds interview with different people. Case was given in a group setting that you have to work with other candidates. After that you will get into breakout rooms for 1-2-1 interviews where they will ask about your motivation to join the company and why this role.
Did one interview I thought it went well but I was rejected at the first stage. Asked for feedback they said they choosed somebody already in the department.
Waste of time.
