I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Apr 2018
Interview
unnecessarily long, you need to get liked by hiring manager. Got an email from hiring manager, had a chat with him first, then had an interview with Buro chief. Human resources got back to schedule next round, about 5 interviews followed.

Question 1
What is more expensive an ounce of gold or i-phone
3-4, interviews first with HR then with editors and a news/ writing test. Pretty standard process in the industry, they get back to you with feedback after each step which is nice. Recruiters are very responsive.

Question 1
What do you think are the most pertinent areas of coverage in your beat?
Standard interview process with multiple rounds. HR rep made timing known; took a writing test as well. Nothing too crazy. Was a pleasure. They took a couple weeks after the last interview to let me know.
Very long winded process. They do these tests that are somewhat demeaning. Then you talk to HR then someone else then the editors and then the senior leaders. It’s tough. It’s BBG. That’s normal. However, once you get to the latter stages like I did, I think there should be a fair bit of feedback that reflects the effort/time you’ve made for them.
