Shanghai's Lujiazui Financial City has joined forces with a website dedicated to offering financial internships, to launch a special internship program. Registration for the program started on April 7.

The program serves as a bridge between university students and enterprises with recruitment needs and offers university students an opportunity to work in the city's financial center.

A total of 1,000 internships are currently available and interested students gain eligibility by answering daily questions from April 20 to May 19, a process which gives individuals an aggregate ranking.

Bonuses will be offered to the top 10 individual winners and one group winner. Each individual winner will get 2,000 yuan ($290) and the group winner will get 30,000 yuan.

The internship will run from July to September, during which time students will have the opportunity to gain quality work experience and improve their financial understanding and practical abilities.

According to Lujiazui officials, the program is a move to strengthen university-enterprise cooperation and it also hopes to help local financial institutions select and reserve top graduates.
