Application process

Your future is only 7 steps away!

Step 1: Register online

Once you have registered as an applicant for our Internship Programme, we will email you a password for the application form.
Time this step takes - approximately 5 mins

Step 2: Your personal details

You will be asked to provide your personal details, including your educational background, the languages you speak and any work experience you have. You will also be asked to identify all countries you are legally eligible to work in.
Time this step takes - approximately 20 mins

Step 3: Online talent assessment

After completing steps 1 and 2, you will be asked to take an assessment - this is designed to show how well you fit with the Standard Chartered culture.
Time this step takes - approximately 30 mins

Step 4: Online numerical reasoning test

If you are successful at the talent assessment, you will then be asked to complete a test designed to demonstrate your numerical reasoning ability. It's important that you complete the practice questions first, as you will only have one opportunity to take the test and practising can help improve your score significantly.

Step 5: General questions

If you pass the online assessments, you will be asked to complete two open-ended questions that measure your skills and knowledge.
Time this step takes - approximately 1 hour

Step 6: Interviews

If you are shortlisted, you will be invited to an interview or assessment. We will confirm the format beforehand.

Step 7: Formal offer

If you are able to demonstrate the skills, knowledge and talent we are looking for, you will be made a formal offer of employment.

Important notes

  • You can only apply once in a particular year/recruitment cycle so make sure you do yourself justice by preparing for each stage of the process.
  • We will not consider your application if it is incomplete, or if it contains false or inaccurate information. Sending us duplicate forms will also make your application invalid.
