I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Sep 2017
Interview
The entire process took one week and consisted of three on campus interviews. The first two were technical and the last one was a little less technical. Immediately after each of the first two interviews I was brought to a different room to schedule the next interview. The format for the first two interviews were the same. Two engineers watched and gave hints as I wrote code with a pen on a legal pad. They were very nice and helpful. The final interview was with a senior engineer. I was told that it would not be technical, but it did involve a little bit of coding and a puzzle.

The entire process was a bit chaotic, I spent a bit of time going back a fourth with my recruiter to schedule the interview by the time i was able to i believe they had already moved forward with a different candidate. My interviewer ended the interview early and had no interest in me at all.
