I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg in May 2015
Interview
This was a phone screen. The technical phone screen was done through HackerRank. They paste in code and then you have to complete a function or debug. It's basic data structures and algorithms stuff, but the interviewer was rude and laughed at me. It was bizarre.

I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Oct 2014
Interview
An internet site called hacker rank was used. The phone process was a bit difficult because of the background noise. There was a bit of confusion because of this and the person conducting the interview was not completely used to the site.
