The Bank Internship Program (BIP) offers highly motivated individuals an opportunity to be exposed to the mission and work of the World Bank.
The internship allows individuals to bring new perspectives, innovative ideas, and research experience into the Bank's work while improving skills in a diverse environment.
In addition, it is a great way to enhance CVs with practical work experience. Internships are available in both development operations and other business units (such as Human Resources, Communications, Accounting, etc.). However, availability during a given internship term is based on business needs.
The Bank Internship Program typically seeks candidates for Operations (Front Line) in fields such as economics, finance, human development (public health, education, nutrition, and population), etc.
Benefits of the World Bank Internship
The WB pays an hourly salary to all Interns and, where applicable, provides an allowance toward travel expenses of up to $3,000 at the discretion of the manager.
These travel expenses can only include transport expenses (airfare) to or from the duty station city. Interns are responsible for their own accommodations. Most Intern positions are based in Washington, DC with a few others in the WB country offices.
