J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Bloomberg (Singapour) en août 2018
Entretien
Applied on their website, once shortlisted, I was given 5 days to complete a video interview where I had to self record myself. There's 1 practice question and 4 questions. They'll flash the questions and you'll be given 30 seconds to think followed by 90 seconds to answer. Questions are mainly about the company and the role. Once I passed this round, I was scheduled to head to the assessment centre where they gave a brief introduction and let you watch a Bloomberg video. Thereafter, there was 3 team members that came to allow us to ask questions (culture, training, job scope, etc). Then you'll need to do a analysis assessment which is excel based (no preparation required, just need to analyse the data). This was kind of stressful as the team managers will be standing behind you, observing your responses to the questions. Next, you'll need to come together in groups to discuss your findings and do a presentation. After this group assessment, you'll either be split to do a process map task or prioritization task. You'll be informed on the day itself if you're shortlisted to be interviewed by the team leaders/managers.

The interview wasn't well designed.
We were supposed to have 1 hour interview but I guess some main questions were left til the very end and we did not have enough time to cover those questions.
I rushed through their questions because I was busy that day. The interviewer did ask me if I wanted to stay and discuss more but I really couldn't.
So we were both left unsatisfied. I couldn't answer as well as I could, and I may appear as uninterested as I simply did not have the extra time for them.

Question 1
They gave a bunch of terminologies such as VWAP, market depth, order book etc and asked me to explain.
Not difficult but I had like 30 secs or less to answer each as we were running out of time.

Only took the video interview. There were 5 behavioral questions that you have time to prepare. Mainly focusing on your understanding of the company, why this position, and the relevant experiences that would make you a good candidate.

Question 1
Self-introduction and motivation.
Describe a data project you’ve worked on and the challenge you faced.
it was very quick. I got offer in less than a month. The interviewer was fine but later experience in the team was bad. Specifically ask what team you will get in.
