slide 1 of 3 "Every summer, when I return to BMO as an intern, I am asked why by my peers. I always talk about BMO’s unparalleled culture of continuous learning, generous support of student interns, and proven offer of significant work experience. I have had the chance to explore many facets of banking from emerging technology to business and in the same company and I would not have had this opportunity without BMO. I also have met and allied with marginalized communities by joining Enterprise Resource Groups and volunteered with communities in need via BMO Volunteer Day. Being BMO is a truly immersive experience. The internship program has been a game changer in helping me plan my career going forward." Maeesha Biswas “The summer internship program at BMO Capital Markets has provided me with ample mentorship to build up my knowledge and to explore numerous opportunities in the company. I am fortunate to start my career in an organization that embraces diversity, in which I was surrounded by colleagues with different backgrounds and expertise. Moving on to the full-time rotational program, I am excited to face new challenges in different parts of the business and to work with great people.” Tiger Sheng Global Markets Analyst "It’s a pleasure to say that this is my second summer working at BMO! Although this time around things were a bit different due to COVID-19, everyone has made every possible effort to make sure I feel like part of the team. Instead of putting us to work right away, BMO made sure we were onboarded properly to work remotely, all while still receiving a full salary. No other employer that I know did the same. That shows that BMO really cares about its employees, even its interns. That is exactly why I came back this year and I will continue to come back. That is why I’m very proud to work at BMO!"
