2026 Charles Schwab Financial Service & Support Internship - Westlake
Your Opportunity
Your opportunity
At Schwab, you’re empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us “challenge the status quo” and transform the finance industry together.
Throughout the 9-week paid Client Service & Support internship, there will be inspiring opportunities that welcome you into the Schwab culture and immerse you into your role. The interactive internship program focuses on a variety of opportunities which feature a business track project, an intern cohort project, learning activities, volunteering in the community, a dedicated intern leader, networking, and exploring your unique personal strengths!
Our Client Service internship program follows our C.A.R.E.E.R.S curriculum - Collaboration, Academic, Real-world Education & Experience, Roundtables & Shadowing. Real-world Education & Experience puts you on actual client support calls with Schwab clients, learning what it means to exceed client expectations. As you embody exceptional client service, you will engage in team building activities specific to your Service cohort, leverage personal development resources, participate in a simulated trading competition using our internal trading platform, learn more about financial services and the requirements to be in our industry, and make a final presentation to internal stakeholders.
Come “challenge the status quo” for the Summer of 2026 and learn what is means to be the next generation of Schwab change makers!
