The Role
I highly value my internship experience at Bloomberg because I was able to learn a tremendous amount about the financial markets and get a broad overview of the different roles and players in financial institutions. The internship is well structured.
I felt that I was able to contribute to my team and that this contribution was valued highly.
During my internship, I was aligned to two different teams and in each team I had a team leader and a buddy to approach at all times.
We had lots of projects to work on at all times.
We were doing a very client facing role, going on client visits and perusing product employment calls.
Definitely, the amount of trainings we received were extraordinary.
The Company
The atmosphere was really good, very international and super friendly.
The internship were very well organised.
The first week was only training and throughout the whole 10 weeks we got constantly trainings and development sessions.
