Last updated: October 2026
ING Americas posted its summer 2027 New York internships in August 2026 and has already taken them down. A saved copy of ING's own posting for the Tech (Information Security) summer internship carries the date 10/08/2026 (ING writes dates day first, so August 10), a June 2027 start and a pay rate of $35 an hour. As of October 26, 2026, ING's US student filter shows "0 jobs," and none of the 715 postings on its careers board is a US internship. In plain words: the summer 2027 door has closed, so you apply in late summer 2027 and intern in summer 2028.
That summer 2028 window is a projection from one dated cycle. ING's Americas page says "recruitment for interns begins in September for the following summer," and this year's first posting came about three weeks earlier.
What Is an ING Internship?
An ING internship in the United States is a 10-week summer internship at ING Americas, the New York wholesale banking business of the Dutch banking group. ING describes itself as "a global bank with a strong European base" with more than 60,000 colleagues and about 38 million customers in over 40 countries. In the Americas, its wholesale division serves corporate and institutional clients in areas such as media and telecoms, utilities and renewables, natural resources, food and agribusiness, real estate and infrastructure. Interns join one department, and the posting we read, in information security, lists work on security monitoring, threat intelligence and control documentation. ING Bank has no US commercial banking license, so it operates through ING Financial Services LLC. This page covers ING's US internships only. ING's board also lists internships and traineeships in Europe and Asia, which are outside this guide.

When Do ING Internship Applications Open for 2027–2028?
ING's summer 2027 internship postings went up in August 2026 and were gone by October 17. The saved posting we can read was dated August 10, 2026, for a June 2027 start, so the lead time was about ten months at the front edge. ING's Americas page says recruitment for interns begins in September for the following summer, which means the posting we saw came about three weeks early. We know the postings were off the board by October 17, but not the closing dates. Summer 2028 postings are therefore expected around August to September 2027, with low to medium confidence.
The Summer 2027 Internship posting for Tech (Information Security) in New York is dated August 10, 2026, for a June 2027 start at $35 an hour. A saved copy of the page is dated the next day.
ING's US student filter returns "0 jobs," and no US internship is posted. The summer 2027 postings were gone by October 17.
The summer 2027 interns who were hired start a 10-week program. Those who receive a full-time offer move into ING's 18-month International Talent Program.
Summer 2028 internship postings are expected to start appearing, based on the August 10, 2026 date on this year's first posting. ING's own page puts the start of recruitment in September.
Most summer 2028 postings are expected, with the window likely closing by mid-October. This year's postings were gone by October 17, about ten weeks after the first one.
How to read this page: our dates come from tracking previous recruiting cycles and daily posting data. Treat them as informed estimates based on historical patterns, not confirmed dates. The company's official careers page is always the most current source. If a role is posted there, go by that, even if this page suggests the window hasn't opened yet.
Why You Must Apply the Week Applications Open
ING's evidence points to a short window. The summer 2027 postings first appeared in August 2026 and were off the board by October 17, a span of at most ten weeks, and ING states no deadline on its Americas page. We don't know the exact close dates, so the safe reading is that a posting can disappear without warning. Set a calendar reminder for August 2027, check the US student jobs page weekly, and apply in the first week a posting for your department appears. If you're a junior or a master's student, that is the cycle for summer 2028.
Which ING Internship Programs Should You Target?
ING Americas posts summer internships by department. Only one posting could be read in full before it came down, so the table shows that one and what ING says about the path that follows.
| Program | Focus | Location and published pay | Key skills |
|---|---|---|---|
| Summer 2027 Internship, Tech (Information Security) | Junior cybersecurity analyst work: security event monitoring, threat intelligence, dashboards, control documentation | New York; $35 an hour; 10 weeks from June 2027 | SIEM tools, Power BI, Python scripting, NIST and FFIEC awareness |
| Other summer departments | ING's board has carried postings by department. Others are not confirmed on ING's own pages we could read | New York; pay not published on ING's pages we could read | Not published |
| International Talent Program (full-time) | An 18-month global traineeship with three rotations, two in New York and one abroad | New York, then abroad; for interns who receive a full-time offer | Not published |
The posting says the program transitions interns who get a full-time offer into the International Talent Program. See the ING Americas page.
What Are the Eligibility Requirements?
ING's pages say little about eligibility. The one posting we could read in full states:
• Education: currently pursuing an undergraduate bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, cybersecurity, information systems or a related field.
• Knowledge: a foundational understanding of cybersecurity principles, and basic awareness of regulations such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, FFIEC guidelines and NYDFS Part 500.
• Tools (preferred): exposure to SIEM and endpoint tools, Power BI, ServiceNow, and basic scripting such as Python.
• Class year, GPA and work authorization: not stated on ING's own pages we could read. Read these lines on each posting when it goes up.

Is the GPA a Hard Cutoff at ING?
We can't say. The posting we read states no GPA, and the others came down before we could read them. Some job boards and university pages repeat a minimum GPA for other ING departments, but those aren't ING's own pages, so we don't use them. Check each posting's qualifications line when it appears, and treat any GPA you see on a third-party copy as unconfirmed.
Profile Match · Extern Data
Could You Get In at ING? Compare Your Profile
Based on 543 investment banking summer analysts at top investment banks from the classes of 2025 and 2026 (public LinkedIn profiles, aggregated). Six questions, under a minute.
Which summer are you applying for?
Recruiting timelines differ by class year, so we compare you with the right group.
Which group is your school closest to?
Firms recruit on campus in tiers. We match you against admits from schools like yours.
Is your major finance, economics, accounting or business?
Math and statistics count too. Major is not a hard filter, but it shifts how much your coursework has to prove.
How many internships, externships or research positions have you held so far?
Count anything with a real employer, mentor or principal investigator attached. Retail and food service do not count.
Has any of that experience been finance-related?
Banking, PE or VC, corporate finance, wealth management, equity research, accounting or consulting. Any size of firm counts.
Are you in a finance club, investment fund or case competition team?
Campus clubs are how most admits get their first deal and modelling reps.
Aggregated from public LinkedIn profiles of people who held the internship. No individual profile is shown. Read the full investment banking intern profile analysis and the cross-industry study of 2,500+ intern profiles.
What Skills Does ING Look For, and How Do You Build Them?
We could read one ING Americas internship posting, so we can't give a skill frequency. That posting, in information security, lists security event monitoring with SIEM tools, threat intelligence and vulnerability analysis, Power BI dashboards, basic incident response and control documentation. It also asks for "excellent presentation skills" and Microsoft 365, and prefers Python scripting. ING's other departments will ask for different skills, so read the requirements for your own department.
Note: ING's summer 2027 postings were taken down before we could read more than one, so we did not count skills across job descriptions. The skills above come from the one posting we could read in full, saved in August 2026.
How Is Demand for Finance Interns Moving Right Now?
Finance intern postings · Sep vs Aug 2026
vs 336 in August
For ING applicants: ING's US student filter showed no jobs on October 26, 2026, after the summer 2027 postings that went up in August came down. The next ING window is expected around August to September 2027.
Daily US job-posting counts, Sep 1–30 vs Aug 1–31, 2026. Covers under half of US postings; shows direction, not market size. Pay = median of employer-published ranges only (60 postings in September, 57 in August).
Build These Skills Before You Apply
Each skill from ING's posting maps to a remote Externship that gives you a finished project to discuss in interviews.
| Skill (from real JDs) | JD evidence | Externship that builds it |
|---|---|---|
| Cybersecurity risk and controls | Information Security: "help evaluate and document controls aligned with key regulations and frameworks" | Hydroficient Advanced: IoT Cyber Defense |
| Data dashboards | Information Security: "contribute to security dashboards and reporting (e.g., Power BI)" | SQL & Database Architecture with Breaking Games |
| Corporate finance and valuation | ING Americas serves corporate clients in industry lending and corporate finance | Attronica Financial Planning & Analysis and Private Company Valuation |
| Deal screening and company research | ING Americas covers sectors such as real estate, infrastructure and natural resources | Mangusta Capital Deal Sourcing & Startup Analysis |
The first row is the most direct match for the one posting we could read. For banking departments the finance rows are the closest practice, but check the posting once it appears.
What Is the ING Application and Interview Process Like?
ING doesn't publish an interview process for US interns. This is what its pages show:
1. Find the postings. On the ING careers site, filter to the United States and job level Student.
2. Apply per department. Each internship is its own posting, so choose the department that fits your major.
3. Interviews. Not published. The posting names no assessment, case or round structure.
4. Start. The summer 2027 posting set a June 2027 start for a 10-week program.
5. Offer. A full-time offer after the internship moves into the International Talent Program.
Prepare with our behavioral interview guide, since ING's posting stresses communication and presentation skills.
What the Community Says
We found no first-hand Reddit thread about ING Americas internships. One post lists ING among 50-plus summer 2027 internships, but it's a list, not an account of the experience, so we haven't quoted it.
How Do You Stand Out for an ING Internship?
Three moves. First, be early. The summer 2027 postings first appeared in August and were off the board within about ten weeks, so a ready resume in July 2027 matters. Second, choose a department and match its tools. The posting we read asks for SIEM tools, Power BI and Python scripting, so show a project that used them. Third, know the path. ING says full-time offers move into its International Talent Program, a traineeship with a rotation abroad, so say why you want a wholesale banking career and not just a summer job. ING publishes no class size, acceptance rate or conversion rate, so we don't give one.

FAQ
Can I still apply for a summer 2026 ING internship?
No. The summer 2026 internships have already run, and ING's summer 2027 postings, which went up in August 2026, were off its board by October 17. As of October 26, 2026, ING's US student filter shows no jobs. The next window, for summer 2028, is expected around August to September 2027.
When do ING internship applications open for summer 2028?
Expected around August to September 2027. The summer 2027 posting we could read was dated August 10, 2026, and ING's Americas page says internship recruitment begins in September for the following summer. That is one dated cycle, and ING hasn't announced 2028 dates.
How much does an ING internship pay?
The one summer 2027 posting we could read, for Tech (Information Security) in New York, paid $35 an hour for a 10-week, full-time seasonal role. Pay for ING's other departments isn't published on ING's own pages that we could read, so we don't give a figure for them.
Is ING hiring US interns right now?
No. On October 26, 2026, ING's US student filter returned no jobs, and none of the 715 postings on its careers board was a US internship. The board does list internships in Europe and Asia, which this guide doesn't cover. Check again in August 2027.
Where are ING internships located?
In New York. The posting we read was for ING Bank in New York, within ING Americas wholesale banking. ING Bank has no US commercial banking license, so the business runs through ING Financial Services LLC and its affiliates. We found no hybrid or remote policy on ING's pages.
Is this the same as Ingredion or Ingram Micro?
No. This guide covers ING, the Dutch banking group, and its New York wholesale banking business, ING Americas. Ingredion is an ingredients company and Ingram Micro is a technology distributor. Both have their own internship guides on this site, so check you're reading the right one.
Do ING interns get full-time offers?
ING publishes no conversion rate, but the posting names the path. A full-time offer after the internship will transition into the International Talent Program, an 18-month global traineeship with three rotations, two in New York and one abroad. After the program, participants move into a permanent role.
What are ING's eligibility requirements for interns?
ING's pages state little. The posting we read asked for students currently pursuing an undergraduate bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, cybersecurity, information systems or a related field. Class year, GPA and work authorization weren't stated, so check each posting when it appears.
ING's summer 2027 door has closed, and the next one is expected around August 2027. Use the months in between to build a project you can talk about: a remote Externship gives you finished finance, data or security work for your ING interviews.
