I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Aug 2011
Interview

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2016
Interview
Phone interview, onsite superday. Pretty straightforward stuff, nothing too crazy. first round with a recruiter, then a couple of rounds with management in the department. I will say the recruiter was pretty organized and the whole process moved decently fast. That being said, I have heard stories that are exactly opposite of this, so your mileage may vary.
