The Role
It was very enjoyable, a lot of activities organized and a lot of networking events.
Bloomberg offers great support, and its employees are very attentive, helpful and supportive of interns that join their department.
My manager has been incredibly supportive, and has guided me throughout the internship. Always provided support and help when needed.
Team gives tasks to do throughout the internship, but if everything was finished earlier, they were happy when we asked for more help we can provide. We were provided topics for presentations that we have to do at the end of the internship, which was extremely interactive and interesting.
There was responsibility involved, as we directly contacted clients.
Skills developed are very useful. One of the most important transferable skills learned was approaching clients.
The Company
The office is an incredible place, and the atmosphere is really friendly and pleasant.
The internship was organised really well, apart from some instances when there was miscommunication between organizers.
They invested a lot of time and effort in training and getting us to know the company and become part of it.
