Citigroup offers internships

JAKARTA: The Sampoerna Foundation (SF) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Citigroup Indonesia to give the foundation's scholarship students internship opportunities at Citigroup.

"The experience gained during internship is significant in ensuring the university graduates land themselves permanent jobs," SF director of programs and alumni affairs Eddy F. Henry said in a statement received by The Jakarta Post on Monday.

He said that SF scholars in their final semester were eligible for internships at Citigroup Indonesia, which would hopefully increase their workplace competitiveness.

"After their internships they will have expertise in a high standard banking institution, which they can utilize for their future careers," Citigroup Indonesia's country human resources officer Ishak Kurniawan said. --JP
