What to expect from the 2025 Finance & Accounting Internship Program:

Our 10 - 12 week paid internship allows you to lead a significant business project from start to finish and gain experience outside of the classroom. You apply the analytical and business knowledge gained in the classroom in a real-world setting, while being supported by a team including a project manager, buddy, and mentor.

Our projects are results-oriented, engaging and represent current business challenges that require a new perspective. The experience requires collaboration with team members from across business divisions; includes networking with senior management, and participation in social engagements with interns from other programs. Additional activities are planned to provide insights into day-to-day life at Nestlé USA. At the end of the internship, you will showcase your work in a final presentation to senior leaders.

We invite you to challenge our ways of working, provide innovative ideas, and improve processes.
