Technology Intern

Description:

Our tech teams challenge the status quo and make an impact on millions of customers every single day. And that's what makes an internship in technology here like nowhere else. Join us, you will get to spend 10 weeks working on real life projects with one of our core tech teams, and see the impact of your work.

You could be working on customer experience and journeys across our apps and website, creating backend APIs alongside our Services teams. You could be working with the Data teams that ensure all the information we store is safe and secure, but ready to be accessed at a moment's notice. Or with the Cloud Productivity Engineering teams in building and developing our class-leading shared capabilities and pipelines

Along the way, you’ll learn how to build great platforms, tools and frameworks. Depending on the team you are in, you will get to use the latest JavaScript frameworks for web development, develop with native iOS and Android toolchains on mobile, deploy Cloud-hosted microservices and so much more! You'll also have the chance to get involved in our graduate-led Developer API programme, which is used by attendees of the hackathons that we sponsor.

And it isn’t just about honing your technical skills. There's plenty of scope for personal development too. You'll be assigned a manager, mentor and buddy to support and advise you along the way. You can also get involved in social events run by our dedicated GradComms team or give back to the community through any of our corporate social responsibility initiatives.

What will you need?

Baseline coding skills (in any language) are important, but you don't need a background in Computer Science. We've hired graduates from Psychology, Maths and many other disciplines. Because you'll be working across multiple channels, we’ll want to see the flexibility and aptitude for learning it takes to master lots of different tools and technologies.

As much as we'll be looking at your current coding skills, however, we also want to see your potential for growth. We understand this may be your first role, or that you might not have experience within a professional tech environment. And that’s okay, we don’t expect you to be an accomplished developer – just enthusiastic and keen to learn.
