Get ready to apply
Built only from what this listing states.
The application takes real work, by our reading.
1. What to get ready
The listing does not say what it needs. When you open their page, write down everything it asks for before you start.
2. Dates
- No closing date is stated.
- Openings with no closing date can close once they have enough people, so sooner is safer. Our advice
- On the date, the listing says: Afreximbank's page lists the deadline as open-ended. Internships start in two cohorts, January and June, and it does not publish a closing date for either.

The download is a small text file. You can read it later without data. It also lists each condition they set, so you can tick yourself against them. WhatsApp sends the same list to you, or to somebody helping you.

Tips for applying for an internship
General advice from us, the same for every internship. It is not what this organisation says; that is above.
- Check first whether it is paid. If it is not, work out how you will cover transport, food and rent for the whole period.
- Say what you want to learn and why this organisation; interns are often chosen for interest and reliability more than experience.
- School projects, clubs and volunteering count as experience here. Name what you did in each.
- If it asks for a letter from your school, ask for it early; offices can be slow.
If there is an interview or a test
- Expect questions about what you are studying and why you want this.
- Be honest about when you are free and for how long.
- Ask who you would work with day to day.
