Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Bloomberg (Oslo) nel mese di ott 2010
Colloquio
A couple of days after applying for the position online, I received a phone call regarding the position. A short telephone interview - very basic questions about my professional background - and as a result, I was asked to come over to do a skills test. The 3-hour skills test was challenging and included writing, editing, explaining relevant terms and phrases, calculations etc. After the test there was a very brief interview, but the recruiting manager didn't seem to know how to interview people for jobs. Feedback from the skills test was promised within a few weeks and when I didn't receive any, inquired the HR about the status. Received a rude answer saying they haven't had the time to check my test but will get back to me within a couple of weeks. Several months later received an email the position has been filled. Overall experience was very non-professional.

3-4, interviews first with HR then with editors and a news/ writing test. Pretty standard process in the industry, they get back to you with feedback after each step which is nice. Recruiters are very responsive.

Standard interview process with multiple rounds. HR rep made timing known; took a writing test as well. Nothing too crazy. Was a pleasure. They took a couple weeks after the last interview to let me know.

Very long winded process. They do these tests that are somewhat demeaning. Then you talk to HR then someone else then the editors and then the senior leaders. It’s tough. It’s BBG. That’s normal. However, once you get to the latter stages like I did, I think there should be a fair bit of feedback that reflects the effort/time you’ve made for them.
