Internship Overview
AWS  is looking to hire and develop the next generation of leaders for our  organization. We are seeking talented and enthusiastic students who are  passionate about solving business problems, innovating and building new  processes, and leading high-impact initiatives. The Next Gen Internship  Program allows you to gain exposure to the AWS business and our unique  Amazonian culture through a rewarding learning experience.

As an  intern, you will independently own a key business project that can  drive business value, and tasks to support your assigned team. You will  hone your leadership and presentation skills, and apply your creativity  to innovate for our business. At the end of your internship, all interns  will present their project learnings and proposal to a panel of AWS  leaders.

Business Development
As a Next Gen Business  Development Intern, you will bring passion for digital transformation,  cloud computing services and the opportunity to shape industry-specific  messaging, solutions and assets for the ANZ market segment.

Upon successful completion of the  internship program, select interns will receive a full-time offer to  join as a Next Gen Graduate after completion of your Degree.

Amazon internships are full-time (38 hours/week) for 10-12 consecutive weeks, from late November 2022-mid February 2023.
