About Our Co-Op Program

Nasdaq’s Verafin's co-op program is designed to give students real exposure to how global markets and technology come together. You'll work on meaningful projects alongside experienced teams, building hands-on skills that make an impact on the business.

We believe the best way to learn is by doing – that’s why you’ll be paired with a mentor, connected with senior leaders, and included in professional development sessions. You’ll also join a diverse global student community, sharing experiences and building networks that last beyond the program.

Our goal is to provide a supportive, engaging, and fun environment where your work feels valued, and your growth comes first.
