I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Oct 2021
Interview
Quite nice interview experience, the interviewers are willing to listen to your ideas and thoughts, and they would give you a hint if necessary, and the codes are not required to be runable, they just focus on your solution and thoughts.
