Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Bloomberg (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di feb 2025
Colloquio
- hirevue with 9 questions (no time limit and we could retake every question)
- interview with 2 team leaders, one from analytics and one from sales. It was very conversational. Initially it focused on a deep dive on my resume, then I had a role-play question (selling a trip), some prioritazation questions and general questions about the company, the role and interest in finance.
- interview with an analytics manager that was also very conversational and focused a lot in my interest in finance, specially because I come from an engineering background

Hirevue, Superday, In person. Hirevue was pretty standard and the superday was hard, but they give you all of the info you need to prepare. I prepared well for everything besides the sales role play, and that's where I messed up. Everything else is exactly how they describe it.

Hirevue was for the first round of the interview then a superday with two interviewers, one from the sales team and one from analytics. Mix of behavior questions and a roleplay scenario.

Can you explain what both the sales and analytics teams do, and their main priorities.
It was quite nice, they were very open and friendly and willing to accommodate, there were quite a few rounds of interviews. It was interesting to see the culture and network
