Process

The WORST company I have ever interviewed with. Nothing against the interviewers; they were awesome and helpful. It's the recruitment process that's astonishingly disorganized.

First of all, interviewers failed to show up twice for the first interview. The recruiter was slow in rescheduling and responding to emails.

Then, right before the final round for the onsite interview, they canceled my flight and interview just a few days prior, stating that they've found enough interns.

Bloomberg is notorious at my school for rejecting people unreasonably and having a disorganized recruitment process. This didn't just happen to me, but to a lot of my friends as well. Yes, their scheduled interviews were canceled because Bloomberg found enough interns.
