BLOOMBERG APTITUDE TEST

Bloomberg Aptitude Test
AT RAVENSHAW UNIVERSITY

Bloomberg Institute is the educational branch of Bloomberg LP. The Institute has leveraged Bloomberg’s expertise in financial information and contacts in the finance industry to develop a test aimed at helping students and recent alumni connect with financial employers worldwide.

The Bloomberg Aptitude Test (BAT) is a global, standardized online test that has been developed in partnership with premier financial institutions and university faculties around the world.

Launched in 2011, the Bloomberg Aptitude Test has been taken by over 110,000 students from 1000+ universities distributed around 63 countries.

After taking the BAT, students can choose to enter their scores anonymously into the Bloomberg Talent Search. This is a tool being used by employers to identify candidates for entry level roles in finance. The Talent Search is also available on the Bloomberg Professional Service, where over 20,000 financial companies have free access to view student profiles on an anonymous basis, and may elect to contact them with testing profiles complementary to their available career opportunities. The BAT is a great way for your students to not only test their current abilities, but also to define themselves as valued candidates to employers.
