The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2009
Interview
Contacted by and HR representative. She was friendly and asked what I knew about the position and what I knew about Bloomberg besides the Bloomberg Professional Service. She said that I would hear back in a week or so. I asked questions and she answered them in detail explaining the position more thoroughly.
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
