Career Academy

The PayPal Career Academy is a virtual program focusing on the early career development of First Generation students and providing them with both skill set development and soft skills that will kick start their career in technology. This program is currently active in the U.S. and India. The Career Academy accepts applications through November for both regions. The program runs March through August each year. Upon completion of the Career Academy, students will have gained firsthand industry coaching and participated in real time collaboration with PayPal employees. They will have the opportunity to apply and participate in an early interview day at PayPal.

Tech skills and business acumen are critical, but soft skills can be equally if not more important to a successful career. The Career Academy is a six-month virtual program designed for First Generation college students (an individual whose parent(s) or guardian(s), did not complete a baccalaureate degree) to develop their skills and prepare for a successful career in technology.

Required Qualifications:

  • First Generation college students in their Sophomore year on track to complete a bachelor's degree in the tech or non-tech space.
  • Must be able to commit one to two hours per month for the length of the six-month program.
  • Must be passionate about continuous learning and excited to take your student life to the next level.
  • Must have received a high school diploma.
