MDC Student Lands Bloomberg Internship

Wolfson Campus student Anthony Popsecu has landed an analytics and sales internship at Bloomberg.  

During the 10-week program, which starts on May 29 and pays $25 hourly, Popsecu will rotate between Bloomberg’s analytics and sales departments. The internship could result in a full-time job offer.

“For people who dream of working in finances, you’re dreaming of the day when you put on a suit and tie and walk into work in New York,” Popsecu said. “That day is coming and [it’s] definitely up there for where I’m most excited about.

Popsecu, who was originally pursuing a bachelor’s degree in finance at Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania, is scheduled to graduate from the data analytics bachelor of science program at Miami Dade College in the spring of 2025.

At Wolfson Campus, the 23-year-old was a member of SMIF, the College’s student managed investment fund. On average, he spent six to eight hours a day trading money on the stock market and learning from mentors. 

He was also a tutor at the Business Innovation & Technology Center for the Bloomberg Terminal, helping students attain certifications and apply for internships.
