Description

Applications for the International Monetary Fund Internship Program 2021 are now open. The IMF recruits for the Fund Internship Program on a global basis with approximately 50 students from around the world joining them each year at IMF headquarters in Washington, D.C. These paid internships take place between June and October and run for 10 to 12 weeks.

The IMF summer interns gain an insider’s view of the member-country-focused mandate and critical international work of the IMF. You will build professional networks while you apply your research and analytical skills to help the IMF explore questions of real importance to their member countries and to global economic stability. Whether you see a future for yourself in international organizations or are simply curious about policy and operational work, this is an ideal opportunity to familiarize yourself with both while leveraging your cutting-edge skills and expanding your research experience.

Responsibilities

Interns will work closely with an experienced IMF colleague on a current issue or research question of importance to their members. The results of your work may be presented to IMF staff at the end of your internship, and many of their interns have had their work published by the IMF.
