There's no better way to find your dream job than to do a co-op or internship with Scotiabank! During your work term, you’ll have the opportunity to be part of a winning team, build your network, and discover what you love – all while getting paid to do it! There’s a place for every type of student at Scotiabank and all that we ask for is that you have passion and strong AOO (Attitude, Ownership and Opportunity).


The Velocity Program is not your average internship or co-op! This is a customized experience that focuses on providing you with the development and tools you need to grow your career. After successfully completing a co-op or internship with top performance, we will work with you to establish your future placements. As a result, you will get to learn, grow, and experiment within different areas of both Scotiabank and Tangerine!


Is this role right for you? In this role, you will:

  • Work with a squad of go-getters to deliver clean and effective solutions
  • Produce workable prototypes to illustrate concepts iteratively and be able to provide detailed specifications for use by the other team members
  • Deliver high quality implementations by practicing best software development practices
  • Be a culture champion pivotal in driving culture change at all levels
  • Experiment & learn!


Do you have the skills and requirements that will enable you to succeed in this role? – We’d love to work with you if:

  • You are currently enrolled in post-secondary education.
  • You love to learn and envision yourself working for an international organization that heavily invests in your future.
  • You enjoy being involved in extracurricular activities such as conferences, clubs, and hackathons.
  • You have knowledge/experience in:
  • Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
  • Database knowledge (Postgres, Oracle, SQL Server, etc.)
  • Programming Languages (Java, JavaScript, React, C, C++, etc.)
  • Development tools (Jenkins, Maven, Artifactory, etc.)
  • Agile Methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, XP. etc.)


What’s in it for you?

  • You’ll be part of a diverse, collaborative, innovative, and high-performing team.
  • In-depth training to prepare you for the role, as well as ongoing coaching and feedback to help you succeed!
  • Exclusive student events such as Scotia Student Day, Lunch & Learns, leadership panels, and much more!
  • Bank-wide orientation to learn more about Scotiabank and gain exposure to senior leadership across the organization.


How do I apply?

For students applying to our internship/co-op or new graduate programs, we do not require resumes! We believe in evaluating you through relationships over resumes and are focused on learning about who you are and what you’re interested in to uncover your true potential. Instead, we ask that as part of your application you complete the below:


  • Complete your PLUM Profile here and save as a screenshot.
  • Complete a short one-way video interview here.
  • Once you have completed your Plum Profile and one-way video interview, apply to the role. Reminder: when the application asks for your resume, instead upload the screenshot of your PLUM Profile!


  • To be considered for student opportunities at Scotiabank, Tangerine, and MD Financial you must complete all steps above.
