Early Careers Programs & Applications
Find out how to WiseStart your career in a global fintech. Here you can find more information about the programs we have available and the application process to get your started at Wise.
Graduate roles
A graduate at Wise is a student in their final year of university or who graduated a year ago, from either a Bachelors or a Masters degree. This is usually their first full time position but they will get real responsibility from day one, alongside coaching from your lead and team.
All of our graduates are full-time employees of Wise! We’ll have a global start date for all of them in September. This way, we ensure they have finished their studies, and also that they can build a network of peers around them for support.
" I feel confident that with the right motivation and willpower, you can do anything. I am learning new skills everyday and developing my own problem-solving skills. Working at Wise has probably been one of the best opportunities I could ever have. We still have a lot to do in terms of gender balance for women in the tech industry! "
Jasleen, Graduate Software Engineer.
Jasleen's storyInternship programs
At Wise all our interns are current students. They are in their penultimate year of study, prior to finishing their university degree (it could be a Bachelors or Masters). A Wise intern will join us for 10 paid weeks over the summer to work with us in Software Engineering, Data Science, Analytics, Design and more! After this, they’ll go back to university to finish their final year.
