• A body of written analysis on global asset markets that showcases your ability to structure robust frameworks and construct coherent, original arguments
• Expertise in several asset classes
• A willingness to adapt to a newsroom's pace, and workflows for editing and verifying information
• A strong work ethic and excellent communication skills
• An ability to work calmly and quickly under pressure
• A willingness to use/learn about Bloomberg's AI and quant tools for analysis
• Familiarity with Bloomberg terminal functions (preferred)
