I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Los Angeles, CA) in Oct 2016
Interview
Applied at the career fair. Had a on campus interview two weeks later. The interviews was about 45mins long. Began by asking about projects on my resume, then did some data structure problems. Did pretty well and called for a second interview the second day, focused on implementation and data structures. Did not do well on the second interview, got rejection email in a week.

The interviewer was not helpful at all with answering follow-up questions. Said he’s not allowed to do that.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Cambridge, MA) in Sep 2022
Interview
I really enjoyed the interview process. It was in-person so it was less intimidating since I could actually collaborate with the interviewer. The questions were a bit challenging but working with the engineers mad getting hints made it manageable.
