Evercore Summer Analyst Internship

Evercore's Summer Analyst Program is the most selective internship in investment banking, hosting only 30-50 interns for a 10-week program that is as intense as the full-time experience. Interns earn approximately $2,210-$2,310 per week ($115K-$120K annualized), the highest intern compensation in the industry, with housing stipends provided. The program begins with an accelerated training period focused on financial modeling, valuation, and the advisory skills that define Evercore's approach. From the first week of staffing, interns are treated as junior analysts: you will build models, prepare materials for client meetings, and work directly with senior bankers who are actively involved in day-to-day execution. The proximity to senior leadership is a genuine differentiator. At Evercore, interns regularly interact with MDs and senior partners in a way that is simply not possible at a 400-person bulge bracket intern class. The conversion rate is approximately 80-90%, among the highest on the Street, reflecting both the firm's selective intake and its genuine interest in developing its small analyst classes from the intern pipeline. The evaluation is rigorous and technical, with the firm looking for candidates who demonstrate not just competence but intellectual firepower and genuine deal passion. Recruiting is hyper-competitive, with applications due early and Superdays featuring the same technically demanding format as full-time interviews. Candidates who earn Evercore summer offers typically have exceptional academic records, prior finance internships, and the ability to perform under extreme pressure. The internship is not for everyone, but for those who thrive, it is the most direct path to a career at the pinnacle of advisory banking.
