I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Jun 2023
Interview
I had a scheduled phone interview with HR at Bloomberg, but they didn't show up and never rescheduled or provided an explanation after I followed up via email. It was surprising and disappointing to be stood up by a reputable firm after confirming the interview. This experience revealed concerning red flags about their professionalism and communication. I'm thankful I encountered these issues early on, as it has made me reconsider moving forward with Bloomberg. I hope they take this feedback to heart and improve their candidate experience.
