I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Dec 2020
Interview
I went first through a behavioural test with plum, then a prerecorded interview. I then received an email saying that I passed the prerecorded video interview. 2 weeks later, I was asked about my availability for the next step by the HR person(EMEA Talent Experience Specialist). However, The HR person did not return to me with a date but only an email thanking me for talking with the team(I never did) and the rest of the usual template answer. I did send an email back to ask about the reasons(No answer). It was very unprofessional of Bloomberg as interviewees put a great deal of time in preparing for interviews. People especially in these times cannot afford to waste time.

Question 1
How do you intend to fill the gap between your previous role and this role?
There was a quiz, a video interview, and then a behavioral and role-playing interview. The most difficult portion was the role-playing interview as I found some of the questions to be too vague about what they were actually asking.
Phone call 30 min, role play interview over zoom and with specific language applied for and then if successfull a team leader interview and if successful then a job offer
