Internships for High Schoolers?!?!?

Hi. Are there any internships in the financial/banking/business sector available for high school students?


Thanks guys! I haven't been able to find any.

There are no formal finance internships offer to HS students.

Although it is not that hard to do an informal internship with your local PWM office, but the value of those internships are questionable at best.

I mean even if you do get an "intership" somewhere, you will mostly likely just be photocopying paper and getting the coffee for everyone.

I think if you live in NYC, Boston, or a major city, you have a much better chance. There are plenty of kids at my high school doing internships at the DA and Senator's office. I know that isn't finance, but big cities are more accustomed to younger students.

Our school provides a career prep program.

I'm doing two weeks for a national bank in August.
