I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in May 2016
Interview
Started with an online assessment, followed by a telephone interview, a language test, and a in-house interview
The difficulty of the interviews I would say is average. It is not that hard, it is even easy if you make sure you do research about Boolmberg, if you know about Bloomberg’s products, competitors, competitive advantage, potential clients, the role itself, etc.
In every interview they asked me “Why Bloomberg” so make sure you have your pitchready. They might give you different cases where they will try to find out your thought process.

Interview
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
