I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Nov 2015
Interview
Following a chat with campus recruitment team, I applied online. The online application took less than 15mins. A week later, they emailed me to arrange a technical phone interview. They told me the outcome of the interview within couple of days. Following that, they arranged an on-site interview. The on-site interview consisted of 2 technical interviews (1-1.5hours) and 30mins of HR. They told me the outcome the next day.
Overall, I had a very pleasant experience. Online application was easy and then it was all about the technical stuff. Make sure you try to learn about the data structures as much as possible, and time and space complexity

Overall, it was a positive and professional interview experience, though the interviewer was on the stricter side. Unfortunately, I was dealing with an illness and wasn't able to prepare as thoroughly as I wanted to, which left me feeling a bit off throughout the conversation. Despite not feeling my best and facing a tough interviewer, the process was well-structured.
Fairly simple. Phone call then onsite. For onsite it was 10 min office tour follow by 1 hr interview then 1 hours system design and 30 mins manager interview. Interviewers were nice and the recruiter was accommodating.
5 rounds first 3 being leetcode coding ones and the last 2 being behavioral. The first three are the hardest asking mainly taggeed questions and the rest are not that bad
