Who this guide is for
This guide is for undergraduate and graduate students considering a Goldman Sachs internship or analyst program. It covers the programs the firm publicly describes — the Summer Analyst internship and the New Analyst full-time program — what is documented about eligibility and timing, and how to prepare an application. Every claim is linked to an official Goldman Sachs source at the end; where the firm does not publish a detail, we say so instead of guessing.
Program overview
| Program | Type | Duration | Study stage | Application timing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Summer Analyst (Americas) | Internship | 9–10 weeks | Undergraduate students, generally during the third or penultimate study year | Applications open for select businesses — reviewed during the recruiting season |
| New Analyst (Americas) | Full-time | Not specified | Final-year undergraduate or graduate students (Americas page: graduating December 2026 – July 2027) | Not specified — check the program page |
Dates and availability vary by region and business. The EMEA Summer Analyst programme states that applications are open and reviewed on a rolling basis; the Americas page notes applications are open for select businesses.
Eligibility
The Summer Analyst program is for undergraduate students, generally in their third or penultimate year of study. The New Analyst program is for final-year undergraduate or graduate students; the cited Americas page specifies graduation between December 2026 and July 2027. Further eligibility terms are not specified on the cited program pages — read the specific listing before applying.
Recruiting timeline
Goldman Sachs evaluates applications during the recruiting season and provides status updates. The EMEA programme is explicit that applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Fixed deadlines are not specified on the cited Americas pages, so applying early is prudent — though that is general advice, not a firm-published rule.
Pay and work arrangement
The cited program pages do not state internship compensation or a standard work arrangement. Pay and location details are not specified; check the specific vacancy.
Application and preparation
Applications go through the firm's student application page. The firm evaluates applications during the recruiting season, provides status updates, and may invite applicants to interview; the detailed interview stages are not specified in the cited guidance.
Preparation is on you, and it is where most applicants fall short. Before you apply, tailor your resume to the posting's exact keywords with the Resume Tailor, draft a role-specific letter with the Cover Letter Writer, and practice behavioral and technical questions in Interview Prep. You can also find recruiters at Goldman Sachs and request a warm introduction before your application lands.
