Interview
Phone interview
Just with a guy specializing in sales I think. Very fair and kind.
Tried to get the best out of me, prompted rather than attack. Overall he was very nice, they got back to me very fast with a response from the phone interview. I'd say financial knowledge is not essential, you'll just need to be able to show you're interested and can talk about other skills mostly sales.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Singapura) in Mar 2015
Interview
3 hour assessment centre. First, a group case discussion. Followed by, in no particular order, shadowing of a full-time staff, "phantom" (tending to a terminal and answering some questions asked), 2 face-to-face interviews and an in-tray exercise.
Very friendly interviewers and the whole interview process was very relaxed for me.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Hong Kong) in Mar 2015
Interview
It was a first round group interview. There was 20 candidates, 1 interviewer from the Human Resources Department, and 2 interviewers from the Sales and Analytics department. We went into a big room, candidates are separated into 4 groups. The staff from Sales and Analytics first gave a introduction about the company. Then we had group discussion.
