I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Dec 2025
Interview
There is the initial Hirevue recorded video; typical questions but only one chance to record and the question is not available until you click record. After that, I had an call with a recruiter just confirming my interest and location preference. This position is *NOT* actually involved with data analytics. It is essentially working help desk with the goal of eventually moving to sales. Job description is a bit misleading, but the recruiter made sure I was aware of the true nature of the role in that first call we had.
After that is the Super Day invite: consisted of 1 session for a short assessment (mainly Python code questions), then a live demo from current employees in the role, and finally a standard interview with team leads.
The interview I feel went well and I felt mostly relaxed answering their questions. There are some role play questions that they will have you do. Ultimately, I was rejected with the feedback being to "make adjustments after they provide feedback within the interview" and that I didn't seem to be very passionate about finance and/or sales (fair evaluation lol).

Question 1
Roleplay:
- Teach me something.

Online and behavioral to see fit. Can solve problems with reason and provide examples. They give practice interviews to help get used to it and provide informational videos on what they’re looking for.

Question 1
What’s one way you managed multiple clients needing immediate help
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
Merely submitting an application will result in applicants becoming disappointed. The current recruitment process in London is chaotic. They invite you to a job fair, but soon afterwards refuse to accept the recruitment, which is a waste of time. The link to the job application may become unavailable unexpectedly (or at any time).
INEFFICIENT and UNPROFESSIONAL.
Is this a new company? Additionally, it is concerning that recruiters themselves are reviewing applicants in languages they do not know. How interesting? I really can’t believe this is Bloomberg. These situations represent some of the most adverse ever encountered. Good Luck, Bloomberg.
