Two QUT undergrads win Bloomberg postings

Two of QUT’s best and brightest, Phoebe Sedgman and Joanna Cooney have won ten week, paid postings at Bloomberg‘s Sydney office.
They are both completing Bachelor of Journalism/Bachelor of Business degrees, which Bloombergs reckon suit them for their international business news.
They flew to Sydney to complete the test at the office overlooking Circular Quay in Sydney. The newsroom which is stacked with computers, audio gear and which features a small TV studio, has panoramic views of the harbour. The last time I was there, there was also a huge fish tank with small marine animals that eerily resembled some leading Australian CEOs.
“We were in the newsroom,” Phoebe aid later,”So we got the vibe of excitement. They were ringing people up in London and swearing at them for not giving them the right information.”
“I’m very excited and nervous about it,” she said.
