The Role
Very interesting and useful experience, amazing corporate culture, nice and smart people.
Very friendly people and open culture. I learned that anybody shouldn't hesitate to ask questions.
Management is very helpful and attentive to what you are doing. You don't feel like being controlled, you feel rather supported by management.
9 hours per day. Nobody forces you to work more, but you can come and work or learn there if you want 24/7.
Consulted people how to use Bloomberg Terminal. Sometimes I talked to financial directors and senior management.
Good insight into finance. Blommberg Terminal is just amazing. You can find literally everything about finance there.
The Company

Good training on Finance and Economics (1 week in the beginning of the internship)
Subsidised Canteen
