Brianne Burrows of I Want Her Job, a website focused on accomplished women in the workforce, interviewed Bloomberg TV anchor Stephanie Ruhle, who delved into her background on Wall Street — she was previously a managing director at Deutsche Bank — and told the story of how she joined the network last October and what she does there.
