Eligibility

I have already graduated or have some work experience – can I still apply for the programmes?

Most internships are offered to penultimate-year university students; however, there are certain circumstances where we would assess a graduate student as well. We encourage you to contact your regional recruiter for more information.

I am in my first year at university – can I apply for the summer internship? You need to be in your penultimate year of study to apply for the internship programme.

I am still at secondary or high school – do you offer any work experience? We don't have any schemes or work experience opportunities for secondary or high school-level applicants.

Do you need any specific academic requirements to apply?

We expect applicants to our programmes to have demonstrated strong academic performance at school and at college/university, although we don't have specific grade criteria for applicants.

GMAT: Not all schools require a GMAT for entry and therefore, it is not an essential part of the qualifications for entry. However, our experience has shown that successful graduates in the firm are those whose GMAT score was 680 or higher.

You should, however, check that you are applying to the right vacancy for your academic background: Associates need to have an MBA plus a period of significant work experience; Quantitative Associates need to have a PhD or similar; and Analysts at least a Bachelors degree or equivalent.

Barclays does not visit my college/university – will my application be considered?

Although we may visit certain school /universities, this does not mean that if you don't attend one of these institutions your application won't be considered. We recruit candidates from all universities.

Do I need to speak the local language to apply for a role in that country?

As Barclays' business language is English, it is necessary to speak a high level of English no matter which role and region you are applying to. It is not always necessary to speak the local language of the office you are applying to, although for roles in the Sales and Investment Banking Divisions, native fluency in the local languages is required.
