Barclays Internship & Company Overview
Barclays has two business Clusters: Global Retail Banking and Corporate & Investment Banking and Wealth Management - both comprising world-class businesses and brands. Barclays runs nine graduate programs across its Global Retail Banking and Corporate and Investment Banking and Wealth Management business units and support functions. These include placements in Barclays Corporate division, Global Retail Banking, Marketing, Product and Distribution, Human Resources, Technology, Tax, Treasury, and Barclaycard. The programs vary in length from 12 months to three years, and the grades required for application vary depending on the business area. An eight-week summer internship scheme also runs for students in their penultimate year, or final-year students who plan to take a gap year after graduation and are expecting the equivalent of a 2:1 degree in any discipline. This programs provides valuable work experience and potentially a fast-track offer to one of Barclays graduate programs. Summer internships are available in six business areas: Barclaycard Credit Risk, Human Resources, Technology, Tax, Retail Banking and Barclays Corporate. In the Corporate and Investment Banking and Wealth Management, programs at Barclays Capital and Barclays Wealth offer 10-week summer internships and graduate positions in Europe, Asia, the USA and the Middle East. All are designed to ensure new recruits reach their full potential, working towards internationally recognized professional qualifications and developing an excellent understanding of how best to meet clients’ needs. Absa, a South African-based bank majority-owned by Barclays, also runs a one-year graduate program.* Internship References

Pros:
You work hard for the money. You might get paid a lot but I worked 90+ weeks on some weeks. In my summer I actually made around 18k total before taxes but that was because my bank paid overtime.
Cons:
Hard work, but it's ibanking.
Advice for other students:
Evaluate Barclays, JP Morgan, and Goldman. Don't go to a regional if you don't have to.

Pros:
The investment banking work at Barclays was intense and enjoyable. I worked on two major projects. The first was modeling out different scenarios for a parent companies subsidiaries. Looked into their capital structure and accounting. The second (and smaller) was research the Greece and Europe situation. I really enjoyed my managing directors and both took the time to talk to me about career goals.
Cons:
You feel some competition to perform.
Advice for other students:
The Barlcays investment banking internship was well organized and they gave me was very impressive.

Pros:
- Smart people that took the time to teach me instead of just telling me what to do. There is a big difference in this.
- Barcalys set it up where I rotated through the High Grade Trading, High Grade Syndicate, and Equity Cash Trading desks.
- Learned how to bring a new offer to market in terms of pricing and order collection. Fascinating.
- Lots of trader interaction.
- Paid well.
Cons:
Has to create some daily reports that I'm not sure many people read.
Advice for other students:
I can't say enough about this Barclays internship, I absolutely loved it and walked away with so much additional knowledge. I guess my advice is apply early, get to know the university recruiters, and work hard.

Pros:
- Barclay's global brand.
- Index product experience.
- My boss and co-workers taught me a ton about fixed income products. How they work, who buys them, the strategy behind buying them.
- Good coffee, I had 2 cups a day.
Cons:
- Not paid as well as the investment banking interns at Barclays.
- Research.
Advice for other students:
Get a operations, research, or even wealth mgmt after freshmen or sophomore year. Go investment banking senior year. Barclay's is solid and good if you want to go overseas for a little bit.
