About You
Really amazing insight into the culture and operations of Bloomberg
Everyone took time out to speak to the insight intern cohort and offered advice and tips on how to succeed in a full-time role.
Lots of training and webinars provided as well as access to Bloomberg Terminal
The customer service skills developed will be useful in any career i decide to go into.
The Company
Very insightful training provided, relevant to the work department. This was a remarkable couple of days spent learning more about the Fintech industry directly from people working in it, from entry-level employees, to senior employees with years of experience. It really encouraged me to form my own opinion about whether a career in the industry is right for me, and how to start such a career. This experience also included a fantastic customer support training workshop.
A very informative experience, with a steep learning curve, including: - learning about different department from BCS to analytics to global data to technology operations - talking to many new people, with a diverse range of motivations, ambitions, and stories - developing my skills through workshops on customer support training - developing my technical skills through Project Innovate case study in a team of 6, culminating in a group presentation to senior employees
Very helpful, the people represent the company culture the best, and we had a chance to speak to over 25 employees. An exciting insight into a fast-paced industry. This experience complemented my passion for learning and developed my strong interest in pursuing a future career at Bloomberg.
Valuable as we had a chance to understand the development and training Bloomberg would provide to entry level employees. We also had a chance to speak to a number of employees at the firm, who had completed summer internships and then returned to a full time role. An inspiring 3 days spent with an incredible, diverse team of professionals, who definitely took the time out of their day to show us the daily operations of a global operation.
Everything Else
Lots of virtual calls and insight panels. During the insight week, I developed both my technical and interpersonal skills through training and on-the-job learning, in addition to improving my resilience and attention to detail.
It was a great opportunity to experience the industry, develop my skills, and meet some wonderful and very supportive people.
Heard a lot about philanthropic activities employees could get involved in, about volunteering
Yes definitely.
