The Bloomberg Assessment Test (BAT) will be coming to campus on Friday, March 15th.  Below you will find important information regarding the test and learn how you can use your results to further your career development.

Bloomberg has relationships with over 20,000 global companies that can access the test score data to recruit for full-time and internship opportunities.  Taking the BAT cannot negatively impact your employment search and there is absolutely nothing to lose by participating in this opportunity.
