Charles Schwab offers 10-week paid internships during the summer in various company departments at select locations, including San Francisco, Richfield and Phoenix.
During the application process, we usually select top candidates for interviews during March, April and early May.

Pros:
- Variety of tasks within the technology department.
- Charles Schwab does a good job creating platforms for active traders. It was interesting to learn how these traders used our tools (site).
- Coffee and occasional free lunch.
- Austin is cool.
- Organized program with feedback.
Cons:
The online trading space is all about volume or DARTs (daily average revenue trades). It's a fascinating business and if you can scale, it can be very lucrative.
Advice for other students:
Charles Schwab is a growing, solid, reputable company. Go for it. They also offer internships in San Francisco and I think some in Denver.
