The Bank Internship offers highly motivated and successful
individuals an opportunity to improve their skills while working in a
diverse environment. Interns generally find the experience to be
rewarding and interesting.
To be eligible for the Internship, candidates must possess an
undergraduate degree and already be enrolled in a full-time graduate
study program (pursuing a Master's degree or PhD with plans to return to
school in a full-time capacity). Generally, successful candidates have
completed their first year of graduate studies or are already into their
PhD programs.
This Internship typically seeks candidates in the following fields:
economics, finance, human development (public health, education,
nutrition, population), social science (anthropology, sociology),
agriculture, environment, private sector development, as well as other
related fields. Fluency in English is required. Prior relevant work
experience, computing skills, as well as knowledge of languages such as
French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, and Chinese are
advantageous.
The Bank pays an hourly salary to all Interns and, where applicable,
provides an allowance towards travel expenses. Interns are responsible
for their own living accommodations. Most positions are located in
Washington, DC (some positions are offered in country offices) and are a
minimum of four weeks in duration.
