How long does an internship last?
The length of your internship varies from one area of deployment to the next and is agreed with you individually, but should last at least ten weeks. As an intern you are part of the team from the beginning on, supporting you colleagues in day-to-day business and taking on assignments in current projects. You are of course shown the ropes and receive intensive on-the-job training.
Which areas come into question?
HSBC Trinkaus covers the entire range of sophisticated and innovative financial services. Based on our long tradition, we are active not only on the stock markets and capital markets, but also service wealthy private clients, corporate clients and institutional clients, often in close cooperation with the HSBC Group.
This orientation of our business activity opens up many different deployment opportunities for our interns. The area you chose should therefore correspond above all to your interests and inclinations.
You can find more information on current vacancies here.
