My friend was recommended by a recruiter at Bloomberg to apply to this position, and I was wondering if anyone at Bloomberg has been through the interview process or worked in the role.#dataanalytics #data

Greatly appreciated if you can help out.

  • Please verify the name of the position, the one in the title doesn't ring a bell.

    Internally "Analytics" is our glorified call center: there is no data science but you may be called by some trader or quant asking you very specific questions about how something is calculated or to clarify some functionality. Tough job. You get a quick learning curve for 6 months or one year than you need to move forward as team leader, move to sales, to engineering or to work as an analyst at a bank or fund where you can brag about your Bloomberg terminal skills.

    There is also Financial Analytics as a department of engineering : a totally different story. Relaxing job. The initial learning curve is madness but then you figure out the patterns and it's almost too easy to get comfy because environment, people and perks are quite good.

    • It may be a new thing or just something I never heard of.

      I don't know about the interview process and I ll let others answer : I already exposed my ignorance here.

      These requirements are definitely unusual for the usual call center analytics:

      Introductory experience with software development .NET, Java, C++ and Python
      Introductory programming in UNIX and/or Windows and writing readable code
