Best Internships And Internship Colleges

Which colleges set you up for the best internships? And which internships are considered the most prestigious? Dave Berry investigates: https://www.collegeconfidential.com/articles/best-internships-and-internship-colleges/

I’m very surprised GWU isn’t on that list.

As noted in the original post in this thread, Vault also ranks the 50 most prestigious internships & lists the pay for the top 17 most prestigious internships.

  1. Google–$7,000 per month
  2. Apple–$5,000 per month
  3. Microsoft–$7,100 per month
  4. Tesla—$26 hour
  5. Facebook–$8,000 per month
  6. Goldman Sachs–$5,700 per month
  7. Amazon–$6,100 per month
  8. J.P.Morgan–$25 hour
  9. Space X–$26 per hour
  10. The Walt Disney Co.–$16 per hour
  11. Nike–$19 per hour
  12. Morgan Stanley–$11 per hour
  13. IBM–$24 per hour
  14. Deloitte–$26.50 per hour
  15. Berkshire Hathaway–$13 per hour
  16. Intel–$28 per hour
  17. ESPN–$11 per hour

Length of internship is not shared in the article & bonus/stock option/incentive pay is not listed. Although free or subsidized housing is noted for some along with travel reimbursement. A Some internships are as short as 10 weeks, others last 2 years with 6 month rotations.

Ranking the top 50 most prestigious internships certainly involves an element of subjectivity. McKinsey, for example, is ranked as the 23rd most prestigious internship and Bain & Co. at 39th with BCG a more palatable #19. Yet Deloitte is at #15.
