I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
All of the questions in the phone call are straight from Glassdoor. Read through all of the questions and you should be fine. Heard back one day after my phone call interview with the recruiter and was invited to a half day visit to the Bloomberg SF office. We met with Team Leaders, toured the office and got free lunch on our way out. 2 of the team leaders interviewed me, both one at a time. Very friendly and mainly asked for examples of times that I dealt with a difficult customer or had to learn something quickly. Next, we were divided into teams and had to pick apart a financial article and determine what our thoughts were on the article. Read lots of financial market articles and you should be fine (read off Bloomberg & Bloomberg Opinion)

6 month interview cycle so it takes a while to actually talk to managers. The trader was not the nicest and would laugh after interviews. Overall a really long process
