The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Feb 2010
Interview
Very basic interview questions. Talk about yourself, what you know about us, what is some stuff in the news right now. There was one guy doing the interview and it was more like a conversation. Just be able to talk about your resume and why you like this position.
Interview with HR discussing role and how my experience as a relationship manager can translate into the role. It was fairly straightforward to learn my motivation and if i would suit the role.
Few stages starting with a telephone screen. Remain curious and personable throughout. It's worth more than knowledge. Learn a little bit about the product you're looking to sell. You'll be ok.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you say to a prospect that tells you your product is too expensive?
Challenging, grilled by two senior sales reps on several topics. No technical questions, almost only motivation. They want to make sure you're committed and mentally ready for the job and the 6-months training.
