I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bloomberg in Oct 2017
Interview
Was offered a phone interview. Received an email 5 minutes before the interview saying they had to cancel. Rescheduled for the week after. Was asked about some projects I had done, some things about memory in java and c, difference between scripted and oop languages. Then was given a technical question, interviewer was very impatient and did not cooperate much unfortunately, though that could be because of the bad phone signal.

Interview
I spoke with them at a campus job fair and applied online. They contacted me shortly after and set up a campus interview. I interviewed 3 rounds. The first two were technical, and the last one was half-technical and half-HR. The questions were of intermediate level. They responded with a rejection within a week.

Interview
If you meet them at a campus recruiting event, they ask you a coding question on the spot. You apply online and if you were successful in the on the spot question, they schedule a phone interview. Based on that you get to the on site interview.
