Other Equity Research Interview Reviews for Bloomberg
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Nov 2013
Interview
There was a two stage interview process. The first interview involved a thorough break down of my CV and in effect was more of a HR based interview whereby I was asked factual questions regarding my previous roles. When called for a second interview, the woman from HR ( who sounded like the same person who called me the first time round ) enquired on how I found the first interview and Interviewer - I responded positively which immediately prompted her to invite me for a second interview.
The second interview was in part hypothetical and questioned me on how I would react to certain pressure situations during long working hours. I was also asked about my knowledge on equities and financial markets in general and if I had any experience In the dissemination of real-time, intra-time and end-of-day financial information.
