Where are the Internships for non-Dutch speakers
Does anyone know of good IB internships in the Netherlands that are possible for an undergrad who does not speak Dutch? Specifically, I'm a Bachelor's student at UvA.
Most of the job offers I found require a strong fluency in Dutch, both verbally and in writing, but I am nowhere near the professional level of speaking Dutch.
I don’t want to get stuck in an unrelated internship, so if anyone knows of any I should be targeting, please let me know. I'm sure you guys remember how hard it was to find something in freshman or sophomore year, so please help by suggesting possible internships where I can learn something. I would wholeheartedly appreciate any help!
Have you checked ING?
M&A team requires Dutch, DCM doesn’t.
Thank you so much, I'll look into it
Do you happen to know something about the ING DCM team in terms of hours/pay/team structure?
Kempen also allows non-dutch speakers to intern
Thank you! Do you by chance know any internationals working there?
Let’s be honest, Kempen won’t hire a non Dutch speaker unless candidate’s family is C-suite of prospective client.
ING, Kempen, ABN Amro, and Rabobank offer internships that do not require fluency in Dutch.
Thank you! Do you by chance know any internationals working there?
Know some at ABN, Kempen and ING DCM. Quick LinkedIn search and you will find some
TBH an unrelated internship might not even be bad. Recruiting in Europe is very name focused so if you can land a corp fin/strategy internship at one of the big tech companies in Amsterdam (Amazon, Tesla, Uber) this might be as good as a banking internship at any company that isn't ING. These roles are also substantially easier to land without Dutch as the firms are very international. So long as you can still show interest in finance it could be an alternative
I didn’t know that! Definitely will take a look at those positions, thank you!
