I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Mar 2014
Interview
I applied a position in Beijing office. Hong Kong office HR interviewed me. All basic behavior questions: Why Bloomberg? Why you? Then followed up with a role play - giving a cold call and sell a product to him. Last was Q&A section. He did not give much information on my questions, and said "that's so far you need to know" . Got the second round offer, but somehow didn't proceed in the end. The HR was a bit mean and unprofessional, which ruined my good impression about Bloomberg.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Madrid) in Nov 2024
