I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Tokyo) in Oct 2018
Interview
Interviewed with senior reporter, then took a writing exam that tested my ability to synthesize information and structure news articles. The interviewer was very friendly and asked questions relevant to the internship (not some of those weird off-the-wall questions you sometimes get).
Normal process through and through with nothing different compared to other companies. OA. Recruiter screen. Then a few more rounds of interviews. The interviews were pretty tough and hard but usual in the current market

Question 1
Tell me about a time you made a difficult decision
There were several rounds. Application with some questions, then hirevue interview which asked several questions and then several rounds of interviews with employees. It was fairly straightforward and just need to be yourself and not worry too much.
