Summer Log-In, Happens So Fast

Ten of the highest paying corporate internships in the country in 2022 are with technology companies where the demand for software engineers, UX specialists, and data scientists keeps even rookies well-healed, according to jobs review site Glassdoor.

Glassdoor said it gathered 88,000 salaries from current and former interns between February 2021 and February 2022 to find the 25 highest paid internships in the country. To ensure the accuracy of the data, Glassdoor said “companies with internship programs must have received at least 30 salary reports in U.S. dollars by U.S-based interns during the timeframe.”

At Salesforce, Amazon, Meta, and NVIDIA, the monthly paycheck for an entry-level office job starts at $8,000 — which adjusts to $96,000 annually.

The same companies offering top dollar to interns were also seeking non-technical interns for roles in marketing and data science, the April report stated.

While the highest paid interns nationally can be found working on the gaming platform Roblox — where median monthly pay tops the national findings at $9,667 (approximately 966,700 Robux at the current exchange rate) — the channel-focused tech companies on the list were also in the mix.
