I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in May 2014
Interview
The process took about 3 weeks. The questions are pretty much alike other people described. I ended up being interviewed by 4 different people. First, I shadowed someone for around 30 minutes. Then, there was an interview with two people and after, a 1 on 1 interview. I have no idea what did I do wrong, I really thought I went well because they said I went well after the interview, and my hopes were really high. The next day I received an automatic e-mail stating I was not selected for the position, without any piece of feedback. Thus, it is really hard to give advice.
