Overview
The internship involved a good split between Analytics and Sales, where we were really able to apply what we learnt in our training sessions onto the Sales work when interacting with clients. We also had to complete numerous group projects that exposed us to the wide range of the Terminal's usability.
Skills
I definitely got to learn more about networking and time-management, as well as team-working skills. I also developed my financial knowledge skills.
Responsibilities
Yes, we were given the opportunity to directly interact with clients from the first week, and also participate in client meetings. Taking ownership of our group projects also provided a strong sense of responsibility.
Support & Guidance
Received great guidance and support throughout the internship. I had 1-2-1 catch ups with my mentors and managers every week, and also felt very comfortable reaching out to them at any time no matter how small the question was. We were always also guided by HR with very clear instructions.
Culture
The company culture of Bloomberg is one of the best aspects, as everyone was always willing to have a chat with us no matter what department they were in. In addition, there were many opportunities to take part in philanthropic events, which really showed the giving back culture of the company.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed this internship, because I felt like it really provided me with the opportunity to grow both personally and in terms of knowledge as well. The opportunity to talk with senior leaders, and participate in many networking events portrayed how much effort has been put into this internship, which I really appreciated.
Yes
I would recommend looking into the cultural aspect of the company - whether they would align with their values.
