How old is too old to intern
Lately I’ve been noticing that banks will take interns at any age. How do people perceive an intern who’s in their late 20s?

As someone who didn't find their life's passion until just recently. Everyone finds their career passion at different times in their lives, some people much older than us. So your 20's isn't bad at all.
What's your passion? How did you figure out what your passion is?
I originally though that I wanted to be in investment banking, but then I realized that I wanted more to be in the trading side of things, that is now my passion
I'm sure you'll hear all sorts of replies to this. I'm guessing most will say something like "Nobody is going to care, you should follow your dream!" but the reality is most people will find it odd, even if they don't mention it, if a 45 year old intern starts in their office. I think it really depends on the culture and individuals you're working around.
That said, we've had 20-somethings as interns in my office and it didn't seem odd at all. Can't imagine that anyone normal would have a major issue with that. Just be sure to have a good "Why?" for the recruiter.
Uh, if you were in your late 20s I would want to take you over a bunch of immature 20 year olds
