I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (New York, NY) in Nov 2009
Interview
It seems there were three guys at the other end of the phone line. Mostly they asked advanced questions about C++, one third of the quesitons are related to STL ( containers, iterators, and algorithms). They also asked a couple of questions about SQL.
