I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Dec 2016
Interview
Overall the experience was ok. Had a telephone interview with one of the software engineers at Bloomberg. He was a little bit awkward but he was fairly helpful. He asked me a few generic questions (why Bloomberg, tell me a bit about yourself etc.) then we moved to the technical part. He asked me to code a linked list and then some other functions to do with the linked list. I was a bit hesitant to build the functions as I hadn't done that in a while but I managed. He then asked me questions about the code, which I got right judging by his response.
Got an email 2 days after saying I did not get an offer - was disappointed as I did everything he asked, but onwards and upwards.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2016
Interview
Applied online and got an email to schedule a phone interview.
Phone interview was about an hour long. Started off by talking about my resume and then went into some coding. The questions were very similar to question found on sites like leetcode.
I was then invited to an onsite interview. There were 4 rounds, about 45min - 1hr each. First 2 were coding and the last 2 were behavioral.
Sadly, I wasn't made an offer.
