      Financial Sales and Analytics Interview

      May 17, 2014
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in May 2014

      Interview

      Step 1: Personality Test: Gives you 60 character traits and you have to rank which ones are most like you, kind of like you, slightly like you, and then the same for not like you. Step 2: Phone Interview: Simple questions about resume, why bloomberg, and the position. make sure you know about the position, and that it is about interfacing with clients/sales in addition to the finance aspect. They're trying to see if you're a good fit/that you really want Bloomberg Step 3: In person: 1 hour tour of facilities, terminal demonstration, and then two 1 on 1 interviews. show your interest throughout. one on one is with someone from sales/ someone from analytics. Sales will ask you about sales experience/sales based questions, and analytics will ask you about the "why finance" side of things and some questions about motivations for the job. Step 4: 2 on 1 with 2 managers in the analytics department. Much more difficult. Ask some critical thinking questions, are constantly on their phones trying to throw you off, and somewhat rude. Don't be phased by this; stay positive and polite and answer everything.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      why bloomberg? what's more important in sales? the client or the product? what do you know about the position? why finance? what is one story you have been following in the markets? what is the biggest misconception about you? how many terminals does bloomberg have internally? how would an airline company use the terminal? sell me something (could be college, iphone app, pen, etc.)

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Jun 2024

      Interview

      6 month interview cycle so it takes a while to actually talk to managers. The trader was not the nicest and would laugh after interviews. Overall a really long process
