I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Nov 2018
Interview
Very slow and convoluted process. The HR team lacks enthusiasm and never keep up with their timeline with regards to the hiring steps. It’s took them 3 months to get through a pretty simple series of interviews. Once I got there, on the field day, I observed a rather dull team. My impressions about the hiring team were very negative in that they seemed to be rather insecure and not very talented.
My advice to HR executive management is to reorganize a rather tedious bureaucracy and make the organization more dynamic. Also hire more talented and enthusiastic people to represent the company in the hiring process.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Hong Kong) in Mar 2026

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you intend to fill the gap between your previous role and this role?
There was a quiz, a video interview, and then a behavioral and role-playing interview. The most difficult portion was the role-playing interview as I found some of the questions to be too vague about what they were actually asking.
Phone call 30 min, role play interview over zoom and with specific language applied for and then if successfull a team leader interview and if successful then a job offer
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Bloomberg, why BCS, long term goals, which department to move into afterwards and why, situational questions to showcase skills
