Any monkey can use a bloomberg terminal. Don't waste your time studying that crap. Just get familiar with it, thats all you need.
bloomberg with the autocomplete is really good. I wouldn't suggest getting certified or anything, just play with it a little so you get how to do stuff.
I had used bloomberg for maybe like 2 hours total before my internship. After 2 weeks this summer my desk claimed I was a bloomberg master. A lot of the functions in equity are in confusing locations. You will use the same functions day to day which you will know how to use but there will be many many functions you wont ever use. The good thing is its all available if you ever need it.
At a BB S&T, do summer interns get their own bloomberg terminal?
you'll get a login and probably an anywhere account
