Overview
The week is split between Analytics and sales: 2 days in analytics and 3 days in sales. In analytics is much about trainings on the terminal and solving most common clients' requests; while, in sales is much about calling and meeting clients. Moreover, you have to work on 4 main projects with your sales team along the whole internship.
Skills
Bloomberg terminal knowledge, customer interaction, interpersonal skills, time management, better knowledge of market players, main Bloomberg products and company's structure
Responsibilities
The sales team gives you immediately a lot of confidence; indeed, since the start you get the chance to call clients and book meetings with them. This is an incredible opportunity to make the terminal knowledge at work and gain confidence in your negotiation skills.
Support & Guidance
Analytics: is all about training, so you get a lot of support. Sales: is much more about interacting with the clients and learning very quickly. For instance, on Friday you get a very brief overview of a new function and you need to be able to call clients and pitch those functions
Culture
Very supportive, everyone is there to help. No questions is too much as long as you are curious and interested here will be always someone open to help you.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed because it really pushes you beyond your limits. You get the chance to work at many many things at once and in order to survive in such environment you need to develop new skills, such as multitasking. Thus, I really enjoyed this process of learning and improving. On top of this, possibility to meet so great people was incredible, especially among the intern class
Yes
Apply because it is a incredible place to learn and grow, the work-life balance is great. However, bear in mind that within the working hours there is no much time to rest, you need to be highly motivated and proactive in any aspect of the job
