During the off-cycle, interns benefit from working closely with a buddy and interacting regularly with a senior mentor. We also ensure extensive contact with Nomura's professionals at all levels through training and informal social functions.

This programme is an integral component of our full-time recruiting. At the end of the internship, we extend offers to strong performers to join the 2026 Investment Banking Graduate Analyst Programme.
