Internships

Seeking to attract even more proactive, motivated and responsible specialists, we provide the possibility for university and college students to professionally or voluntarily intern at various structural units of the Bank of Lithuania.

Internship goals:

• To introduce students to the activities of the national central bank
• To help students develop their practical skills by applying theoretical knowledge they acquired at university
• To impart to students the experience of Bank of Lithuania employees and thus help schools of higher education develop highly-qualified specialists
