  • During the Bloomberg Insight Week, I gained several valuable skills. One of the most significant new skills I acquired was proficiency in using the Bloomberg Terminal. I learned how to navigate its features, analyze financial data, track market trends, and customize the Terminal to suit specific client needs. Additionally, I developed my customer service skills, learning how to effectively assist clients, respond to their inquiries, and provide tailored solutions. Alongside these new skills, I also improved my ability to work in a team.
