The companies we work alongside want to ensure they are recruiting a diverse work force; therefore we assist them to recruit high calibre students with a disability to help them meet this aim. Our candidates go through the same assessment process, however, adjustments will be made as and where necessary.

Each Year there are 10-20 internship places available per company within the Investment Banking sector. Places are available within the following areas; Investment Banking/Management, Global Transaction Services, Equity Sales and Trading Operations, Fixed Income, Capital Markets, HR and Technology. The Investment Banks will accept applications from high calibre students who have or will achieve a minimum of a 2.1 degree. A numerical or finance based degree is not essential but desirable and relevant work experience or involvement with relevant extra curricular activities will provide an advantage. The paid internships last for a maximum of 12 weeks and do not guarantee full time employment however, the placement will help candidates refine skills suitable for the industry and generate relevant experience as well as accumulating solid business contacts. To apply for any of our Investment Banking Internships please send your CV to graduates@eopps.org and quote ‘Hobsons’ in the subject field.
