Goldman Sachs interns wanting to know how to impress chief executive Lloyd Blankfein have been told how to do so by the man himself: bring in cookies.

"I eat so much junk food... I’m the chocolate chip cookie king of the world," Blankfein said in a light-hearted address to the bank's 2017 class of summer interns, a video of which has been posted by the bank online.
