Internship Opportunties

Participants in First National’s internship program experience a comprehensive process that prepares them for a rich career in financial services. Interns perform challenging tasks that make an impact on our customers and on the organization, under the supervision of business unit managers. We provide a variety of training opportunities to help build interns’ skills throughout this process, which concludes with their delivery of a Capstone Presentation in which they articulate what they have learned. Throughout the internship, First National provides professional coaching and guidance, networking with other interns and emerging professionals and, in many cases, we support the intern with job placement support at the conclusion of the process.

"After working as an intern for two years, I was hired as an Operations Analyst, and I am still just as amazed by the unique working culture here as when I started. People genuinely want to help one another, and I always try to return that whenever I can."
