The interview process was lengthy, and took about two months. First I did a pre-recorded interview, then they contacted me to do a super day. It was an hour long with two team leaders, one from their sales department and one from analytics. Before the superday interview, I felt prepared by the emails that they sent out. I then was brought in for a final interview in San Francisco. It was another hour-long interview with two team leaders, this time of higher seniority.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Feb 2025
Interview
- hirevue with 9 questions (no time limit and we could retake every question)
- interview with 2 team leaders, one from analytics and one from sales. It was very conversational. Initially it focused on a deep dive on my resume, then I had a role-play question (selling a trip), some prioritazation questions and general questions about the company, the role and interest in finance.
- interview with an analytics manager that was also very conversational and focused a lot in my interest in finance, specially because I come from an engineering background

Interview
Das Gespräch verlief gut. Die dritte Bewerbungsrunde ist mit 2 Teamleitern. Einer aus dem Sales und einer aus dem Analytics Department.
