I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Jan 2019
Interview
I applied online in November 2018. There was 5 rounds in total including a video interview, 2 hour language test on the telephone, assessment day including skills test, group work and two interviews and then a final interview. The team at Bloomberg were really personable and the HR team make you feel really at ease during the assessment day. Before the first interview we were given a pack with made up rental properties. We had to prepare for a sales pitch with the interviewees in which we would act as estate agents and try and sell the homes. The second interview included plenty of technical financial questions in addition to career progression details. Final interview was more like a good chat with a few specific questions on options.
