I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bloomberg (Stony Brook, NY) in Feb 2010
Interview
This was complex, multi level, detailed, looking for a needle in the haystack from 10,000 feet. I found they had hidden requirements which left me guessing what they were looking for is a superman with x-ray vision, and abilities to know where they are and where there going down to a release level... HArd to figure this out.
