There were two rounds followed by a phone screen. Bloomberg usually has 4 rounds. So if you find yourself being escorted out after two in-person interviews, it means a reject.
Phone screen: 45 mins, Round 1 inperson - 1hour round 2 inperson- 1 hour
All were technical with few questions about my projects
The second round - discuss the differences between python,java and javascript–this was discussed extensively for half an hour
