2027 Nestlé USA Sales Internship Program

What to expect for the 2027 Nestlé USA Sales Internship:

We offer a 10-week paid internship in the Nestlé Sales Organization. The Sales internship is an introduction to a career in sales and the partnerships with our major customer teams. Interns will develop their knowledge and understanding of the Consumer Products and Food industry, tackle relevant business challenges, develop selling skills, and inspire change for real processes and business needs. The experience requires collaboration with team members from across business divisions, networking with senior management, and participation in social engagements with interns from other programs.

As a member of one of our customer teams, you will participate in key sales activities throughout your field experience with direct instruction from Nestlé USA leaders.

During the internship, you will focus on a project that requires a new perspective to deliver results against our immediate and future business needs. Additional social activities are planned to provide insights into day-to-day life at Nestlé USA. These findings will culminate with a presentation to senior leaders.
