Summer Internship/ Spring Break

Hi, as a 2nd year student that is currently studing accounting and finance at university where can I find internships for the summer? I would really appreciate some help as I really need one.
Hello there!

Finding a summer internship in Accounting and Finance as a second-year university student is an excellent way to gain practical experience and enhance your career prospects.

Explore the careers pages of well-known firms in the accounting and finance sector. PwC, Deloitte, KPMG, and EY are excellent options, as well as financial services companies like J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and Barclays. Don’t overlook smaller regional accounting firms, which may offer valuable hands-on experience.

Online job portals are another key resource. Platforms such as RateMyPlacement, Prospects.ac.uk, LinkedIn, and Indeed often list internships tailored to university students.

If you’re seeking earlier opportunities, consider Spring Insight Programs, which many firms offer to first- and second-year students. These shorter experiences provide exposure to the industry and often lead to summer internship offers.

I hope this helps!
Good luck!

Kind regards,
Reka - Coventry University Student Ambassador
