Teams for new grad in Bloomberg Princeton?

Mar 28, 2020 20 Comments

Just accepted the offer. Joining in July.

Im looking at joining the Princeton office because idk how long it will take the NYC situation to die down and become stable. Other personal reasons too.

Anyways... I saw that Bloomberg Engineering has teams for Financial and Trade Analytics. Wanted to know if these teams work in the Princeton Office and if they would hire new grads.

Long term goal is to work at HFs as quant dev.

    If you wanted to work at HFs long term, you'd have been better off in FAANG.

      Well not quite true. After the 6 week training there is a job fair with maybe 20 teams or so, and then every training class graduate submits their team preferences. The teams can also express interest in specific candidates but mostly the coordinators just go by the candidates’ preferences.

      Well I have a BB offer pending right now (which I will decline soon). They told me that good teams want good candidates. So, if your profile is not good enough you won't get your first pick. Although they kept stressing on how they get you in your top 3 picked teams.

    Def join the NYC office. Don’t go to Princeton. We’re all WFH anyway until the situation improves.

    Also, I don’t know where the teams you mentioned are located but I’d be surprised if they’re in Princeton. I think Princeton is mostly web teams and data teams. But I could be wrong. Princeton is definitely very small compared to NYC (there are buildings in NYC, including the HQ at Lex).

    hi, my friend just gave an interview for Bloomberg on 24th and went through 4 rounds. He hasn't received any reply yet. He applied for the princeton office too. Can you let me know when was your interview taken? And how long did it take to get a reply back? Also can you share the compensation details for the princeton office
