Internships and Co-op Placements
When you’re in school, there are hard decisions to make; it's hard to choose the right career path. You might not be aware of all your options, where you will succeed, and ultimately, what you will love doing. What better way to find your path than to do a co-op placement or internship with Scotiabank, Canada's most international bank?
During a co-op placement or internship, you’ll have the chance to discover what you love, network with peers, mentors, and industry experts—all while getting paid to do it. We offer internships and co-op placements in almost every line of business. It's the best way to get a seat at the table and take the first step in the start of an awesome career.
Our programs start every January, May, and September. Look for our postings at your career centre, on your online portals and, of course, come to meet our amazing campus team.
