Overview
I rotated into 2 departments in my internship, one was analytics, and the other sales. During analytics there were mainly classes to have an understanding of the market and the different market players, while sale was about client interaction and update them on new functionalities.
Skills
I have became more self aware of my skills, I have discovered that I am a fast learner and an active listener, I improved my public speaking, the interpersonal skills and how to handle uncertainties.
Responsibilities
Yes, since from the second week of the internship we were responsible of talking to clients with many years of experience, we had to handle the conversation, updating them on the new offering, booking meetings and try to solve their problems.
Support & Guidance
The internship was really well structured and developed. There were no moments in which we did not know what to do, everyone was always ready to help and give and advice. We were followed but at the same time we had in some occasions to come up with something on our own, but this was useful to grow.
Culture
The company culture is unique, everyone is really open ready to help and have a coffee chat, to provide advice. In Bloomberg if you are curious you can really learn what you want.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed it as it allowed me to grow, not only from a professional point of view but also from a personal one, allowing me to discover my real strengths and weaknesses.
Yes
I would advice to apply because it is a unique opportunity, but they have to have at least an interest in financial markets, and enjoying talking to people
