World Bank Treasury Summer Internship Program

Applications are now open for the 2027 World Bank Treasury Summer Internship Program. The Treasury Summer Internship Program is a junior professional training program designed to develop the skills necessary for an exciting and rewarding career in the financial industry.

The World Bank Internship Program aims to bring exceptional college students with a demonstrated interest in a financial career to support the World Bank’s development mandate.

The internship lays the foundation to become a Junior Analyst, a two-year position on one Treasury team, immediately after the intern graduates from their degree program. Interns are expected to be in their second to final year in the equivalent of a four-year college degree program.

• Must be in good academic standing at their college or university;

• Must be available full-time through the duration of the internship;

• Must not have a concurrent employment contract or internship.

• Interns join on a short-term temporary contract and are paid between $22.70 net per hour for non-U.S. citizens and $27.70 gross per hour for U.S. citizens, for a total of 400 hours.

• All interns are expected to be in person, full-time, in Washington, DC, for the entire internship (May 26 – August 3). HR policies may change, but interns are expected to work at least four days in the office per week.
