A VERY interesting internship opportunity in VERY niche area of Banking Technology. Those for whom Banks primarily mean Finance jobs, this internship may turn out to be an eye opener. After all record keeping and ensuring safety of billions of financial transaction every year require some of the best technical solutions to be designed and implemented. What may be a simple swipe of a credit/ATM card for you has a complex web of servers, cable networks, and data transfer protocols spread all over the world enabling that swipe. A fascinating world indeed; we all know that the money makes the world tick but did you ever wonder what makes the money tick? :) The last date to apply is 17th March, 2013 – hurry!
