I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Hongkong) in Mar 2015
Interview
It is a group interview. 4 of us form a group. There are interviewers from different streams such as Bloomberg Intelligence which is my stream, Global Data and Analytics. We are given a 10-page report by Bloomberg and conclude and report to the interviewers. Not hard, just exhaustive.

Question 1
pattern recognition questions as well as personality questions
Very informative and supportive. The structure was very clear. I like their application portal. You start by filling out the application online, followed by an online assessment, and then an interview.

Interview
The video interview was done through a software/website that records your answers for 1 minute - 1 minute 30 seconds per answer. Takes about 20-30 minutes to finish and interviewee can have enough time (unlimited?) to prepare before recording an answer. Answer can be recorded only once.
