Selection Process:
Applicants chosen for consideration will be invited to (a) complete a pre-recorded video submission and (b) indicate the internship programs from the list of businesses above for which they would like to be considered
- This process will help determine which business-specific seminars and small group sessions participating students attend
While student applications are limited to one Launchpad, we will consider applicants for all forums based on capacity.
Students should consult with academic faculty to determine if this unpaid experience will earn credit.
Forum Overview:
Selected students will experience business-specific seminars, join panel discussions on diversity and inclusion, and participate in small group networking over the span of multiple days. Each virtual session will be hosted live and feature opportunities for two-way communication with members of our team.
This diversity and inclusion forum supports the bank’s commitment to equity and inclusion by recognizing top campus talent from historically underrepresented backgrounds in the financial services industry; specifically Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, Native American, women, LGBT+, military veterans and people with disabilities, for the fast-paced internship recruiting process. Our goal is to host a diverse group of attendees, and all students regardless of diversity status are welcome to apply. Selected students will be considered for 2022 summer programs.
