Spring Intern Review

During the 4 days I have been involved with different types of activities. From day one I enjoyed most of them for the engagement, culture-sharing and participation Bloomberg team was able to create. Furthermore, I did not realise the potential of the Bloomberg Terminal. The construction of the program was built all around it and I am glad Bloomberg made that decision as was 100% worth it.

I was part of small group of 30 students. This allowed me to participate actively during each session and provide my point of view to the speakers and guest during the insight. Furthermore, the culture of the company allowed me to show the best of my skills and ambitions. I did not feel the pressure during tasks as I would in other companies due to the solidity and consistency I personally felt from the people managing the insight.

The team was really precisely in advising and allowing us to provide points of view at any time. During the days, Q&A sessions were really flexible and in line to the activity scheduled. Was a great opportunity to ask questions and further information. Personally, there was not any issues when asking questions and team was always supportive, talkative and interactive with all of us.

In regards to my financial preparation, massively. I am now able to talk about different financial products and intake different analysis within financial data. Furthermore, I am now able to use the terminal for further research and I am sure this would be beneficial for my degree. I will start my dissertation in 2 years based on some financial statistic I am already looking to and the information and preparation reach from the insight completely enhanced my persona.

With four days was really difficult to cover all the department and activity that a good intern needs to go through. However, the activities were really outstanding in the learning outcomes and the satisfaction high as well. We went through networking sessions, open discussions. group activities and a final group pitch. Overall, the experience was really well structured.

The vibe was great, I did not imagine something like that to happen before the insight. However, there was not a diffused competition, people were helpful and also students did not manage to get stuck on the ground for the pressure during the days. The 3 members of the team were always friendly and engaging from early morning to late evening when we finished. A multi-cultural effect that surprised me and a lot of other students. What a great experience we had!

Bloomberg Terminal training was provided and was really insightful. Furthermore, other trainings were organised all managed by different people within the different departments of the company.

The task and activities were completely organised in order to understand that. I now believe I would appreciate to have the opportunity to work at Bloomberg full time and I will make the best out of next internship to make this happen.

Is always difficult to understand a company culture by few days in. However, I feel confident to say I know a lot about Bloomberg LP culture as I put myself into the game completely for the days in.

Really valuable. The tasks set were completely directed to get us the understanding of what is the daily activity of being in Sales department, analytics or Global data. Also, the insight from the different team members were the most valuable part to get the real insight of what could be my future career path.

I live in London and I did not have the necessity to be reimbursed. The program was not a pay scheme.

Yes, plenty every day. Also during lunch and breaks we were completely involved with the company spaces.

Really good! there was no limit to participate in conversations with other members of the company and I really appreciate that.

Yes. Theatres, opera, sports, challenges within teams are part of Bloomberg extra activities. Really well-organised.

Yes, to all my friends that has at least an interest in Finance.
