The internship enables people to contribute fresh viewpoints, ground-breaking concepts, and research expertise to the Bank’s work while honing their talents in a multicultural setting. Additionally, it is a fantastic method to add real-world work experience to resumes. Both development operations and other business units (such as human resources, communications, accounting, etc.) provide internships; however, the availability of these positions during a particular internship period depends on business needs.

Eligibility Criteria
Candidates must hold an undergraduate degree and be enrolled full-time in a graduate program (pursuing a master’s or PhD with intentions to return to school full-time) in order to be eligible for an internship. No age restriction applies.
English proficiency is necessary. It would be advantageous to have knowledge of languages including French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, and Chinese. It’s good to have additional skills, like computer literacy.
We embrace diversity in the workplace and welcome applications from all competent people, especially women with a variety of professional and academic backgrounds. The world’s top talent is what we’re trying to draw in and hire.
Additional Information
The WB Internship Program typically seeks candidates for: Operations (Front Line) in the following fields: economics, finance, human development (public health, education, nutrition, population), social sciences (anthropology, sociology), agriculture, environment, engineering, urban planning, natural resources management, private sector development, and other related fields; or Corporate support (Accounting, Communications, Human Resources Management, Information Technology, Treasury, and other corporate services).
The WB pays an hourly salary to all Interns and, where applicable, provides an allowance toward travel expenses up to USD 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.
