    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I thoroughly enjoyed this internship from the start to the end. The structure of the programme was very well thought out and allowed us to develop our skills over the course of the summer. I genuinely believe this is one of the best internship programmes available and urge all to apply for this invaluable opportunity.

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Some days were busier than others but this was purely to do with when the projects had fallen - coinciding dates and generally the second half of the internship was busier.

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • The skills and training will prove invaluable - in particualr presenting and being able to display logical research, thought processes as well as results - i will finish the internship feeling positive about my impact and how i can use my skills onwards in my degree and professional career at Bloomberg.
