Three Nigerians have bagged an internship at JP Morgan, the US multinational investment bank and financial services holding company.
One of the interns who identifies as Adedeji Rotibi announced the achievement via his Twitter page on Monday.
Rotibi also shared photos of the trio at the bank which is headquartered in New York City, the United States.
According to him, they just commenced day one of the summer programme at the regional headquarters in London, the United Kingdom.
“Day 1 as a summer intern @J.P. Morgan in London and I’d be working as a software engineer,” he wrote.
The tweet has garnered nearly 10,000 likes — as of the time of this report — with a number of Nigerians on Twitter sending congratulatory messages to Rotibi.
A Twitter user named Wálé Akínfadérìn insinuated that the University of Lagos (UNILAG) students are always beneficiaries of such internships.
“Looks like there’s an ongoing solid pipeline that takes UNILAG undergraduate students (Comp Sci, Sys Engr, Comp Engr, EE) to London for internship at JP Morgan Chase and Facebook,” the user wrote.
Corroborating Wale’s opinion, another user wrote: “This has interestingly been in existence as far back as 2010 JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America Merrill Lynch As an OAU student, I was a candidate for Goldman Sachs spring internship & BOA summer internship in 2012 We were mainly from OAU, UNILAG, UI, & Covenant Uni.”
As of March 31, 2022, JPMorgan Chase is the largest bank in the United States, the world’s largest bank by market capitalization, and the fifth largest bank in the world in terms of total assets, with total assets of US$3.954 trillion.
