I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Mar 2015
Interview
The negotiations started with an hour, over the phone interview with a Bloomberg engineer, who asked couple dozens fairly simple questions on core C++ concepts. The second meeting was with a 2-man panel of senior engineers and was centered around a Web-based coding environment through which couple typical interview problems (each would require tens of lines of C++ code) were expected to be solved and discussed.
