I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (London, England) in Oct 2020
Interview
The first step is a psychometric test, which I found difficult. It is a lot of logical reasoning and pattern-identification. It took awhile to hear back, about 3 weeks to an invitation to the video interview.
The video interview was 9 questions, some were behavioural but some also technical/information about their services and products. I found this difficult as well, relative to other graduate programmes
