Thanks for your replies above. I have a couple of followup questions that I posted above, that I'm not sure you saw, so I'm reposting:
Two followup questions.
1) I have access to a bloomberg terminal. Is there a way to get industry specific league tables on the bloomberg?
2) If I'm interviewing for an M&A/Corporate Finance position in an i-bank, what are some of the functions I should be familiar with on the bloomberg? Or to ask in a different way, what are the bloomberg functions that investment bankers use regularly?
So far, I know:
- MA (for general league tables, not industry specific)
- NI (then search for M&A news)
- LEAG (for underwriting league tables)
Anything else? |

Apologies but I have been in a work-induced occultation which continues so an unchaceteristically brief response.
You are apparently a long lost soul mate of mine in your focus on the minutia.
But don't worry about learning Bloomberg now. Any firm will train you.
Focus on getting through the interview and landing the offer.
Most research is done through specific web-based (and fee based) services who make a job of compiling info in usable and manipulable form. Thompson's, Deallogic, etc. etc.
