I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Singapore) in Dec 2010
Interview
Application for the position of Financial Sales and Analytics was done through Bloomberg's official website, and I received via e-mail, to attend a group interview session about 2.5 months after submission of my job application. The e-mail came around 3-4 days prior to the scheduled interview.
The entire interviewing process includes 4 rounds, with the first being the group interview whereby a group of applicants would be asked to individually step up onto a stage to describe themselves in 2 minutes; questions that needed answering were 1. Why did you choose Bloomberg 2. Why did you choose this specific position and 3. What can you offer Bloomberg. After everyone had given their 2 minute speech, applicants were spit up into 4 groups to discuss and provide solutions in the form of a short presentation for a case question provided.

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
