Jobs and Internships

Are there any companies within banking sector that will take an MBA without prior experience in the financial sector. I m talking about internships. Are companies to open hire without prior experience in finance but have experience in computer science

Are you a graduate MBA or still in school? If the first, you're going to have an extremely hard time finding internships for many reasons. If the latter, you should be able to find some through OCI (especially if at an MBA business schools">M7 or top 20, much less so for anything below).

Now you mention computer science experience, that is definitely something you could possibly leverage into a role at a bank/related company depending on your level of experience and prior jobs. Probably not a FO role (such as IBD, S&T, ER), but IT, risk, product control, and related fields might find that attractive.

Really going to need more information from you to provide any more specific or helpful advice.
