Opportunities from Ministry of Finance — Government of Tonga

The Ministry of Finance offers work-experience internships so students can gain practical exposure to ministry operations. Applicants specify the internship or volunteer arrangement they seek, its intended duration and the preferred division or section. The ministry says a limited number of internship places are available each year.

Applicants must be enrolled in a vocational study programme at a recognised tertiary institution during both application and internship, with at least sixth-year secondary education plus the first year of vocational study completed; alternatively they may be in the final year of an undergraduate or graduate programme in Accounting, Economics, Information Systems, Computer Science, Administration, Human Resources or another field directly related to ministry technical work. Effective oral and written English and Tongan are required for relevant office assignments.
