With over 49,000 employees globally our three primary businesses – Private Banking, Investment Banking and Asset Management – partner with our Shared Services, Information Technology and Operations teams. Together, they work around the world, around the clock, providing seamless solutions to our global clients and employees.

Our Full-time programs
Our programs give you the chance to make a difference from day one, and provide world-class training and support to help you develop into a future business leader.
In addition to on-the-job experience, you will receive formal training and mentoring tailored to your individual needs and to the demands of your chosen business area. This is just the first step in a program of continuous professional development that we will offer you throughout your career.

Our Internship programs
We offer one of the most in-depth internship programs in the financial services industry. Our programs offer intellectual challenges and real business experience and typically last for ten weeks.
From day one, we’ll help you develop your skills.  You’ll gain meaningful insight into the different areas of our business, while participating in our unique collaborative culture. You’ll face real challenges, enjoy real achievements, and have your talents recognized every step of the way. You’ll receive world class classroom training and on-the-job experience, and you’ll meet and network with your peers and Credit Suisse employees at all levels.  Above all, you will develop a skill set that will set you apart.

Recruitment Process:
Step 1: Submit your online application
Since this is an opportunity to sell yourself, you’ll want to provide relevant and specific information that will set you apart from other applicants.
Complete the online application and upload your resume and cover letter at the end of the form. Your cover letter should outline the reasons you’re applying and explain why the position and location you’ve selected interests you.
The application asks you to specify the division and location to which you want to apply. You can learn more about our Hiring Areas and opportunities available through this website.
Try to keep the information you provide as concise as possible. We encourage people to keep their resume to a maximum of one page. You don’t need to include a photo.
Here are a few checks to make before submitting your application:
Make sure your contact details are correct. If you’ve made a mistake, we may not be able to get in touch with you, and you may miss the chance for an interview.
Carefully select the appropriate region and program. If you select the wrong region or program, you will have to create a new application.
Check your application for mistakes before you submit it.

Step 2: First round of the interview process
This stage will likely consist of one or more 30-minute competency-based interviews and will focus on your interpersonal skills and leadership abilities. Be yourself but be focused on your contribution.
Your application will be reviewed by the business area you have chosen and by Campus Recruitment. If you are selected for an interview, your first round will take place on campus or at one of our offices and will be conducted by senior-level managers.

Step 3: The final round
Really know your stuff. The final round will consist of two to three interviews and the focus will be on your problem-solving abilities as well as your soft skills (communication/presentation and interpersonal).   We also try to provide you with a good idea of what the program will entail and the type of work you could be exposed to on a day-to-day basis.

Step 4: Considering an Offer
It’s an interview, but it’s also a conversation, so don’t hesitate to ask a lot of questions. Soon after your final round, we will contact you with the results of your interviews. If you receive an offer, a number of representatives will be available to answer further questions about Credit Suisse or about the offer itself.
It’s also a good idea to speak to people—industry professionals, career officers, fellow students who may have experienced Credit Suisse—who can offer additional perspective. If we make you an offer, of course we’d like you to accept in a timely manner, but  only after you’ve given it careful evaluation.
