Moreover, at the end of the day, we also had the opportunity to network and talk with the team leaders.

  • 8. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Bloomberg

Don't be discouraged if you are not studying either Finance or Economics, there is a higher level of academic diversity thus if you are deeply motivated and interested in knowing more about the FinTech industry and the Bloomberg environment, don't hesitate to apply! Last but not least, be confident in yourself!
