I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Feb 2014
Interview
My first interview was 20 min. telephone interview. The interviewer was so polite and she asked general questions like tell me about your CV, why do you want this position? what do you know about this position?, etc.
Than the second one was video conference. The question was mostly about sales like how do you sell Bloomberg?, what are the competitors, etc. They also asked about the current economic events.
The third one was almost the same with the second one.
