I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2016
Interview
It started out with the typical behavioral/fit/motivational questions, definitely more emphasis on this stuff compared to other consulting interviews. Then they move into questions about Bloomberg specifically and to test your financial knowledge. I had done a lot of prep and looked up a lot about the company but they asked very specific questions and the hypotheticals on financial markets and stocks were fairly difficult.
