Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I attended sessions and presentations about the various teams, the ins and outs of the work they do, including the software and functions they use, different job roles. I had access to the famous Bloomberg Terminal and got to explore using it through demos, simulation tasks, and during a group project. We had plenty of opportunities to ask lots of questions to the presenters and panelists. A truly fantastic and insightful experience!
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
I learned so much about the different teams, functions and job roles! I didn't expect to learn as much as I did, not did I expect the presentations and sessions to be as in-depth and detailed as they were. All of the sessions were incredibly informative. It made me all the more keen and hopeful to be offered an interview for an internship or a full time role! Would love to work there.
