    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • The insight was quite well-structured, although not perfectly structured. This is, however, critic on a high level as we still knew at almost all times what to do and where to go.

    4/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • The overall atmosphere was great. The team put a lot of effort behind the insight and everybody at the company we met was truly willing to help and support us. The atmosphere was professional yet casual, and we had great fun.

    5/5
  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    5/5
  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?

    • No expenses incurred as the week was entirely online due to COVID-19, but as far as I am aware, the firm normally does reimburse all expenses related to the insight.

  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?

    • Due to COVID-19 and the remote nature of the insight, networking was fully online. However, we still had the chance to meet many employees of the firm.

    4/5
  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?

    • Yes, we had several social events (all virtual) - these were much fun!

    5/5
  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?

    • We learned a ton about different activities one can get involved in besides work.

    5/5
  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?

    • I can recommend this insight to friends interested in finance and tech. Bloomberg put a lot of effort into this programme and participants got many opportunities to get to know the firm, its divisions and the people behind the firm better.
