About the program
The ANZ Summer Internship Program is the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group’s flagship summer intake: a paid internship of 8–10 weeks in the 2027/28 cycle, commencing November 2027, across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Interns get professional development, a graduate buddy, and a real shot at an early offer into the ANZ Graduate Program. Available streams include Agribusiness, Australia Retail Banking, Business & Private Bank, Institutional, Technology and Finance. Note the framing: this is paid employment, not a scholarship award — it is a proper paid internship, and accommodation, airfare or living-expense support are not mentioned anywhere, so they must not be assumed.
Where it stands right now: the 2027/28 Australian intake is at the Expression of Interest (EOI) stage, not formal application — so no application deadline has been published. ANZ will contact registrants when formal applications open, which is expected around June/July 2027 (an expected opening, not a confirmed deadline). Some aggregator sites describe it as open to “international students” — that is misleading: ANZ requires Australian or New Zealand citizenship, or permanent residency.
Eligibility
- Citizenship/residency: citizen of, or permanent resident in, Australia or New Zealand. Other international students should check work rights carefully — ANZ’s requirement is AU/NZ citizenship or PR.
- Year of study: in your penultimate (second-last) year of a bachelor’s or postgraduate degree.
- Attributes: digitally savvy, data literate, and able to learn from challenges and setbacks.
- No banking background required: there is no requirement to have studied banking or finance — diverse academic backgrounds are welcome.
Benefits
- Paid internship for 8–10 weeks (specific salary not published on the official page).
- Professional development and a graduate buddy.
- Potential early offer into the ANZ Graduate Program.
- Exposure across real banking streams — Agribusiness, Retail, Business & Private Bank, Institutional, Technology, Finance.
Documents required
