9a. Would you recommend Bloomberg to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

Its a great place to get started in the technology sector, but if you aren't interested in technology, Bloomberg offer so many more opportunities in Media, News, HR, Philanthropy, so its a great place to get a lot of experience and potentially move around the company to meet others!

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Bloomberg?

Make sure you have been able to look into doing projects by yourself that are linked in some way to the role you are applying for, as that will not only show you are interested in the role, but you will be able to talk about the process you went through to complete the project and then how that could potentially link to the role you are applying for.
