The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) is inviting new entrants to its internship programme in the banking and financial sectors.

Interested candidates for the programme must range between 21 to 29 years of age and are required to have a degree from any recognised university in Kenya in the fields of finance, economics, and statistics.
Other fields include banking, accounting, micro-finance, management or social sciences, or a masters degree in a relevant field.

However, internship programmes at CBK do not necessarily mean is a direct ticket for retention, but the regulator allows interns to apply for any position it advertises upon successful completion of the programme.
