The goal of the OECD Internship Program is to recruit highly motivated and competent students from a variety of backgrounds to work on initiatives related to the Secretary-strategic General’s orientations and to support organisational operations. Its main objective is to provide qualified applicants with the chance to develop their technical and analytical abilities in a global setting.
The Internship Program is always accepting applications. Online applications are only accepted from students who will be enrolled in a fully approved degree programme (Bachelor, Master, or Ph.D.) for the whole time of their internship. Up until until notice, selected interns are expected to work remotely.
The OECD accepts applications all year long and actively seeks for interns. Apply at any moment using the online application system.
Your availability dates and the schedules of the OECD hiring teams will be used to determine the start dates for the internships, so be sure to include these in your application.
