I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Princeton, NJ) in Aug 2019
Interview
First round was 30-45 mins interview with two people from the Global Data Team. Final round SuperDay was in their Princeton office, where Global Data is based. It consisted of three rounds. The first was a group debate, where you were split amongst the other candidates, to argue on a specific issue and raise a recommendation to BBG employees. The second was a technical exam, where you had 30 minutes to answer 12 questions on Statistics, Math, Programming, and Finance. Third round was a process improvement/case interview, where you had to read 2 cases and pose recommendations on how to improve ways to go about them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you describe how our clients use our products? Why do you want to work at Bloomberg?
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.
