Process
A Bloomberg recruiter contacted me via LinkedIn for an interview. I applied online, and she referred me.
I received an email from another recruiter asking about my availability. We aligned on a time, and she was very professional.

Cannot think of anything else.Cons: If you are going there, just keep this in mind. You can be Albert Einstein and be the smartest in the world, but you don't get promoted easily. Everything here works based on relationships. Very long, extra hours of work without pay! Zero work-life balance. Erratic rules: be a buddy to your manager, and you can come at 10 AM and leave at 5 PM, no problem. Otherwise, arrive at 8:05 AM, and you can be in trouble.
