I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2021
Interview
The interview process was not traditional because I completed a 3-day externship with Bloomberg prior to applying. After the externship, they invited me to apply and do a "practice round" with one of the hiring mangers I met during the externship. They walked me through the process and made it very easy, noting that I stood out a lot during the externship.
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
