Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
All of us dedicatedly worked on one project throughout the 10 weeks. I was responsible for automating the acquisition of a certain document type by building an ETL pipeline. This required understanding the Bloomberg tech stack (which is very particular to Bloomberg). I had to understand the various components available for the pipeline. Since I was working with a new acquisition method that even my team wasn't familiar with, it required communication with many engineering teams.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, especially with figuring out the new tools. I was also engaged in other projects such as building a package to help my team with a commonly used functionality.
