Interview
Applied Online and got invited for a phone interview. The interview lasted approximately 20 minutes, and was mainly about why Bloomberg and why this role. Since I come from a finance background, there was also a lot of emphasis on why not an Investment Bank or the finance division of another company. I was also asked to explain what is Global Data Analysts are expected to do. No behavioural questions at this stage (phone interview).
