I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Londres, Inglaterra) in Feb 2020
Interview
Starts with application form and 5 basic questions about: Why Bloomberg?, Why this department?, Strengths, Proudest accomplishment.
In my case, followed by a phone interview, basic behavioural questions. Use STAR technique and brush up on Bloomberg products.
Then assessment centre. Starts with job simulation, then group exercise, followed by interviews with team leaders and then managers. Final round is interview with the head of analytic/sales. Make sure you're knowledgeable about Bloomberg products and values and keep up to date with financial and technology news.
It was a natural conversation. Not tense. Almost didn’t even feel like I was having an interview. Tested both Japanese and English skills. They also asked me about their products
