I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Nov 2015

In general the process went fast and the interviewers were nice. Phone interview: given array with positive integers representing stocks, find what is the maximum loss we can get. Then questions like C++ vs Java. How garbage collection works. On site: implement a stack, given an array of integers find if there are 2 integers in it that can sum to a specific value.
