Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Visit to the Bloomberg offices in London to get the basics of the work they do, the Analytics and Sales role and the career plan they offer to graduates. From 9 to 5 you will take part into different lectures, and activities with employees to learn about the already mentioned.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was very interesting to see how a fintech company operates opposed to classic financial firms, the Analytics career path focuses more on sales but there is room for mobility between roles.
