That’s a wrap on our 2026 Summer Internship Program!
Over 10 weeks, our interns did a lot more than learn about banking. They experienced firsthand how different teams across Midwest BankCentre work together to serve our customers and communities.
From touring St. Louis and learning about our work in Community & Economic Development to exploring fraud and risk, digital banking, financial literacy, data storytelling, and how banks make money, this summer was filled with opportunities to learn from leaders across the organization.
They also invested in their own professional growth through resume reviews, mock interviews, career development workshops and mentorship, and took what they learned into the community through our Give Joy initiative.
But perhaps the biggest challenge came when our interns put their ideas to work. Divided into two teams, they spent the summer tackling real business questions around building primary banking relationships with millennials and multigenerational wealth and relationship retention, culminating in final strategic recommendations presented to our executive leaders.
To our 2026 interns: thank you for the curiosity, energy, ideas and perspectives you brought to Midwest BankCentre this summer. We hope you leave with new skills, meaningful relationships, and a deeper understanding of the impact you can make wherever your careers take you.
We can’t wait to see what you do next.
