Our Summer Internship Programme is an eight-week internship taking place June through August.

This programme is designed to provide students with a challenging, meaningful and supportive internship experience that replicates, as closely as possible, the experience of being a full-time BlackRock Analyst. The programme begins with an orientation that offers a thorough overview of the firm and the opportunity to hear from a number of senior leaders. 

Following orientation, interns receive on-the-job training and are given day-to-day responsibilities to contribute to their teams throughout the summer. Programming also features a speaker series, mentoring and various networking opportunities, including activities with our employee networks. 

If you enjoy this programme, you should explore our Full-Time Analyst Programme, which you can consider applying to after your internship.

Our team is known for:

• The work of the team is diverse in subject matter, and highly collaborative in nature. Focus topics are wide-ranging, rooted in global megatrends, current affairs and regulatory issues.
• Current priorities include retirement frameworks in the context of population aging; sustainable investing rules that support the transition to a low-carbon economy; geopolitical challenges and energy security; financial inclusion; corporate governance and shareholders rights; financial stability and market infrastructure; digital assets; long-term investment – to name just a few.
