  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • We learnt a lot about the work done at Bloomberg and the values of the company. The presentations covered plenty positions at Bloomberg from Global Data department, Analytics&Sales to the News. We learnt a lot about the clients of Bloomberg but also really cool functions to use with the terminal.

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • From Monday to Friday we had plenty of activities and conferences. We started the day at 8.30 am and finished at 18.am with a one hour break at 1 pm and several short breaks. You have to carry out a group project during the week and present it at the end.
