Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
In my role within Bloomberg’s **Analytics and Sales program**, I support clients globally by answering real-time queries through our Instant Bloomberg system and helping them maximize the value of our products. Day to day, this involves problem-solving across asset classes, educating clients on new tools and features, and collaborating with Sales on onboarding and product rollouts. Over time, the role evolves into a more consultative, client-facing position in Sales, focused on building relationships and driving business growth.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, I was given a significant amount of responsibility from the start, particularly in handling live client queries through our Instant Bloomberg system where accuracy and speed are essential. I was trusted to work directly with clients across industries, helping them resolve issues and adopt new tools, which required both technical knowledge and strong communication. This responsibility not only developed my problem-solving skills but also gave me the opportunity to make a direct impact on client workflows.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
Yes, I’ve definitely developed my communication skills, especially in tailoring explanations to clients with different levels of technical and market knowledge. Handling real-time queries has taught me how to break down complex concepts clearly and concisely, while also actively listening to understand the client’s needs. I’ve also become more confident in managing professional conversations under pressure, ensuring clients feel supported and valued.
