Summer internships

As an FCA intern, you would learn about FCA and the Farm Credit System, the network of cooperative financial institutions that we regulate.

You would learn about important topics in the banking industry, such as the stress-testing of loans and the compensation of senior bank officers. You would also learn about the five credit factors (character, capital, capacity, collateral, and condition) we use to evaluate the safety and soundness of an institution.

And you would have the opportunity to hone critical business skills, such as

• how to communicate effectively in person and in writing,
• how to work in a team environment, and
• how to manage your time so you can complete projects and meet deadlines.

• Graduate not before August 2019 but not later than June 2020
• Be available to start work by mid May but no later than mid June 2019
• Be a U.S. citizen
• Be willing to travel during the week
• Be at least 18 years of age
• Certify that you have registered with the Selective Service System or are exempt from having to do so (This requirement only applies to males born after December 31, 1959.)
• Be enrolled, or accepted for enrollment, as a student in an accredited educational program pursuing a degree in a qualifying field. (See table below.) If you are pursuing a graduate degree, both the undergraduate and the graduate degrees must be in a qualifying field.
• Have a cumulative GPA of 2.95 or better on a 4.0 scale

If you meet the qualifications and you’d like to apply when a job announcement becomes available on the USAJOBS website, take this one all-important step now: Set up a USAJOBS account.

Setting up an account can take a bit of time and the job announcement may be open for only a short time, so you’ll want to take this step before the job vacancy is announced. Here’s what you do:

1. Go to Create New Account on the USAJOBS website.
2. Use the USAJOBS Resume Builder to create your resume or upload your own resume (recommended). Important: Be sure your degree and month and date of graduation are clearly visible on your resume.
3. Go to Saved Documents on the left side of the screen.
4. Upload your most recent unofficial or official transcript. Important: If you are working towards or have a graduate degree, you must include that transcript in addition to your undergraduate transcript.
5. If you are a veteran, upload the member copy 4 of your DD-214.

How to upload documents to your USAJOBS account:

1. From the My Account page, click Saved Documents.
2. Select your application documents stored on your computer to include in your saved documents. Files must be less than 3 MB and must be in one of the following formats: GIF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, RTF, PDF, or Word (DOC or DOCX). Enter a name for each of your documents.
3. Click Upload. Once a document has been successfully uploaded, you can view or delete it at any time.

Interns receive $16 to $19 per hour based on the number of years completed in school. Please note that you must receive your paycheck as a direct deposit.

Interns also receive the following benefits:

• You will earn four hours of sick leave and four hours of annual (vacation) leave per pay period (every two weeks).
• You will be paid for holidays that fall within your regularly scheduled workdays.
• You are eligible for a transit subsidy.
