Yahoo offers paid internships in all business units with a focus on technology, marketing, user experience/design, and product management. 

Yahoo internship benefits include:

• Competitive compensation
• Housing stipend (where applicable)
• Travel to and from your internship
• The opportunity to be considered for a full-time position upon graduation

At Yahoo!, big thinking comes with the territory. When your work reaches over half a billion users--that's 1 out of every 2 people online--there's no small task. We need creative minds that can take us new places. Individuals who want to positively impact their career--and the world at large. We're looking for Big Thinkers who embody the fun, innovative, collaborative spirit that's uniquely Yahoo!.

Get an internship experience that’ll make your roommates, friends and classmates purple with envy. From day one you’ll be given a real assignment that will make a real impact on our business, our hundreds of millions of users—and on your future career and the opportunities that will be available to you. You certainly won’t be making copies and coffee runs (unless you like coffee, in which case our free latte bars might interest you).

Not your ordinary internship. You’ll be amazed the difference you can make—even in a few months. Maybe your code will be used by millions, or you’ll launch a marketing campaign, develop a new product strategy or an amazing GUI. Our interns have done that—and more.

You’ll also have lots of fun—volunteering within the community, networking and social events, and showcasing your work to top execs. You could even have the winning hack at our company-wide Hack Day.*
