Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What do you think are the most pertinent areas of coverage in your beat?
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Sep 2025
Interview
Phone screen then loop interview. The phone screen is an hour technial interview then if passed you would proceed to their in house loop interview. The in house interview would be schedule at 11am EST for every candidate and can have multiple rounds and end with a HR round.
I applied online. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Londres, Inglaterra) in Aug 2022
Interview
First round recorded answers, which felt quite dehumanising, but was curious about the role so continued. Standard questions like Why here, tell me about a time when etc.
Second round panel interviews. Feedback very generic. I probably wouldn't apply again.
