The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in May 2012
Interview
only tele interview+ 1 HR,sales manager interview + interview with head of department.
Typical competency based +brain teaser questions, and walk through of CV, questions being asked like: sales the terminal to me, what do you know about the company and its business, revenue genreated by london zoo per annual, etc. HR guy is shape but dont talk, head is a nice lady and almost free chart but being challenged after being asked how to deal with difficult customers and give several examples..
Very long wait time, wait almost 3-4 weeks after each interview but anyway got and accept the offer, so patience is quite important ...

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
