We are excited to let you know that IFC launched the 2023 Global Internship Program on February 6th, 2023! The period for submission of applications will run through March 6th, 2023.
IFC’s Global Internship Program (GIP) offers highly motivated individuals an opportunity to be exposed to the mission and work of IFC and the broader World Bank Group and become part of the world's largest private sector development institution. The program encourages individuals to bring new perspectives and innovative ideas to IFC’s work, while improving skills in a diverse and highly stimulating environment. Moreover, the Global Internship Program provides a unique opportunity to exchange ideas and network with international professionals dedicated to ending extreme poverty and boosting prosperity in the developing world.
Candidates must be currently enrolled in a Masters’ degree level program, with at least three years of relevant professional experience. Candidates must have their expected graduation date after December 1st, 2023, to be eligible.
The interns are hired for four weeks between May 1 and September 30 to work on discrete projects in Washington, D.C., or in one of IFC's country or regional offices. Currently, some of the posted opportunities will be open for virtual participation.
A list of positions and descriptions is posted on our career website. (Link: IFC Global Internship Opportunities)
Interested candidates are expected to submit their CV and cover letter stating their motivation to apply and how their skills and expertise meet the Internship requirements.
The hiring departments will contact selected candidates directly for interviews between March 22nd and April 28th.
Also, we will have an information session on Friday, February 24th, 2023, at 9.00 am EST for interested students to participate in.
