“In the 10-week internship, I have rotated between the Analytics and Sales Department. 

At Analytics, we were assigned 5 projects to work on beyond conducting campaign calls to our clients. 

In Sales, we organized the hosted seminar to our senior sell-side client and we also had the opportunities to represent the company to attend client training and meetings. Bloomberg has a structured programme in a sense that we were all assigned a mentor and connector and there are also intern events throughout the internship that build our strong bonding and understanding about the company. 

Bloomberg has one of the best and most structured internship programme, from the first rotation at Analytics to Sales – I have done several projects and some provide me with opportunities to shine and perform. 

Team collaboration is definitely one of the aspects that I have gained and improved the most – as most of the work is done in groups and the company culture would just facilitate all the collaboration and help between everyone. I also learned to ask for feedbacks proactively and improve myself by taking reference to all these senior’s insight. I would say after the internship, I have become a person that speaks in a calmer manner and be able to understand and empathize people well.

The HR had organized a lot of events for us, from social and networking events to philanthropy events, we were able to not only understand the Bloomberg culture and value, but also apply through our actions.

Having the Bloomberg Terminal in place in the Finance Lab is already one of the greatest supports from CUHK. If not the lab, I would not have the opportunity to access the Terminal and never would I know such great company exist. Compare to other schools, CUHK has more resources and promotion on the usage of Bloomberg. Many of my batchmates from other schools never knew their schools provide Terminal usage and therefore, appreciation definitely goes to my school, my alma mater (to be).

Moreover, being recognized as one of the elite programmes in Hong Kong, this brand recognition has helped me build my credentials and trust both internally and externally at the client place.

The trainings and support from the programme office and the university is also paramount as it built a solid foundation in terms of my technical and understanding about the Terminal. Thank you for all the support and assistance all way through my internship and university life. I would never be me without all of you and it was also a great opportunity to meet all of these ambitious and intelligent talent in GLEF. This marks the end of my four lovely years of campus life and being a CUHK and GLEF alum is absolutely the proudest identity I could have in my pre-societal life and hopefully one day, we could proudly share our experience back to our juniors and assisted them as if we were being assisted during our college years. It was a great privileged to spend my four undergraduate years here and thank you once again, Professor Chow, Holly and Ada for all the support and help.”
