The insight was an introduction to the Global Data and Sales & Analytics departments. The activities that were undertaken included various departmental workshops, soft skills workshops, global data exercises, sales & analytics exercises as well as a group challenge
Yes. I developed many financial skills as we had to do a stock pitch. Furthermore, we got access to the Bloomberg terminal so I learnt many skills specific to using and navigating the terminal
It was amazing. The practical exercises really allowed us to do the type of work they'd do on the job which was good to experience practically. There was ample time to speak to employees and ask about their day to day roles
You can tell Bloomberg values their staff. All the employees were very nice and eager to help everybody learn via answering questions and volunteering their time.
I loved it. The only negative I'd say is that it was virtual
Yes
Make sure you can demonstrate an interest in Bloomberg. Reach out to collegues on LinkedIn as everyone is happy to help
