Question 1
What do you know about Bloomberg?
Why do you want to join?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Feb 2017
Interview
Applied online then had two telephone conversation - one with the team leader and one from hr. Following that, I was invited to a face to face interview. The latter was rescheduled several times and when finally it happened they were late to see me. This has to be one of the most annoying interviews I have ever done. I genuinely regret attending this meeting. Three individuals - two over the phone (head and regional managers) and one in person and yet weren't able to make the right decision. The so-called team leader was a rather strange character he couldn't stop talking after the interview which was tiring to have to listen to him.

Question 1
No need to prepare as they have a strange way of selecting candidates. I believe it tantamount to being unethical.
Pretty thorough and transparent interview process. Initial screening and then an in person interview after that you will be invited to shadow and meet the team, including the manager and team leader. Be prepared to not only do a case study and explain your answer, but to be re-interviewed in depth with both behavioral and background questions. Overall, a good lesson in interviewing for a large scale corporation.

Question 1
What would you do if a customer repeatedly has issues with an email? What would your current manager say are your strengths? Do you work better alone or on a team? Name a process that you implemented and were you successful?
Open and simple questions; most behavioral questions and some language test such as speaking and typing, Team leader and team manager will both attend the interview. HR also gets to give you some interview advice and feedback.
