This includes a mix of in-person and virtual events – everything from engaging webinars on career development, financial literacy and inclusion topics, community service activities and in-person networking events to mingle with full-time Fidelity employees.

  • Strong intern candidates are dynamic, curious, innovative, conscientious, and believe in the true value of collaboration. Current college student who will return to coursework after their Summer 2026 internship has ended are eligible.

Note: Our Summer 2026 internship assignment runs from June 1 - August 7, 2026 and require in-person participation approximately three days or more per week. While there is the occasional opportunity to work from home, this is not a remote internship assignment.
