About the Internship
Do you want experience that helps you build a stronger VC resume and develop real venture-style research skills? The WSO Venture Capital Internship is a highly selective, off-cycle virtual internship designed to help top students gain hands-on experience through structured training and venture-focused work.
We screen thousands of students globally to identify high-potential talent. Strong interns that are screened will have their profiles shared with our network of partner organizations, including:
- micro-VC funds
- emerging managers
- venture studios
- accelerators / incubators
- angel syndicates
Only a limited number of interns are selected each quarter per geographic region, ensuring a high-impact experience and meaningful mentorship.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
