Internships

As an intern at the Richmond Fed, you’ll play a role in helping us achieve our public service mission. You’ll gain hands-on experience contributing to meaningful work, performing community service with fellow interns, participating in professional development and social activities, and experiencing an unforgettable team-building program.

Our summer internships typically last 10 to 12 weeks, and co-operative education opportunities can last up to one year. Both experiences involve paid, on-site work. You’ll complete tasks or a project designed to give you a broad understanding of one of the Richmond Fed’s business or job areas, like Human Resources, Supervision and Regulation, or Information Systems. College sophomores, juniors, seniors or graduate students may apply. We’re looking for candidates with demonstrated academic achievement and strong interpersonal and communication skills.

Most summer internship positions are posted starting September and close by early December. Interviews and offers typically take place between November and March. Start dates for summer interns usually begin at the end of May and run into August. Depending on business needs, additional opportunities may be available at other times during the year.
