The Role
Great work experience, I was included in a number of activities and made responsible for my own projects.
People at Bloomberg are amazing, they are collaborative, nice, and pleasant to work with.
I have praised my manager, Charles, to everyone who has asked me. He put an erxtrav effort in my personal development and the progressing of my internship.
I had ongoing projects throughout all my internship. I was also encouraged to go out and keep myself busy, to use my free time to explore other areas and teams in the company.
I was in charge of a calling campaign and along with another intern. Moreover we were given time to work on a research project and presented it to several team meetings.
It has given me a more realistic point of view of the buyside and sellside sector in the finance world.
The Company
The people I interacted with across the different departments were all interesting and enjoying their roles.
Great organization, plus freedom to explore.
Bloomberg invests immensely on their interns, make us feel very valued.
