I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg
Interview
Applied to interaction designer role through their job portal with referral by a friend who's already working there. The UX team sent me a design exercise and promised a timely feedback on my design. I submitted a detailed design process, medium fidelity prototype and a design document. There were never feedback. I waited for 2-3 weeks and finally my friend reached out to HR, then HR sent me the rejection email directly. No words from the UX team whatsoever. I spent a lot of time finishing the exercise but they didn't even bother to reach back to me even they promised so. I mean, as a new grad, I know my approach to the question was probably amateurish in the eyes of their pros, but at least you could try to act polite by living up to your tiny promise.

Question 1
Design exercise: design a small feature in their financial product.
Straight forward process, for the design role they were looking for someone with more complex workflows and dashboard design experience. The team was nice and got into asking about the nitty gritties of the design process.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Aug 2023
Interview
The interview process itself was difficult but ultimately fair, however I really didn't appreciate that I was left waiting so long for a decision, especially after I was given a timeline of 2-3 weeks. After completing the interview process I was told I'd be given the decision in 2-3 weeks. After about 6.5 weeks I finally got a decision: rejected.

Why Bloomberg, the usual interview questions. I got asked about my collaboration style and how I work cross-functionally, things like that.
