Blackstone: does its private equity off cycle internship sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyPrivate Equity Off Cycle Internship (London)

Unconfirmed. Blackstone publishes no sponsorship policy for its private equity off cycle internship, so we cannot state a firm answer. The Off Cycle Intern sits on the Private Equity deal team, working on financial analysis, modelling, investment research and transaction execution alongside the same staff as full analysts. It is aimed at students graduating in 2026 or 2027 who can commit for around six months starting in either January or July 2027. Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis rather than against a single deadline, and the posting does not mention visa or right-to-work sponsorship anywhere.

The catch: There is no fixed application deadline, so waiting for a posted closing date risks missing the rolling review; the posting also does not confirm sponsorship, which for a six-month stay may fall outside a Skilled Worker route in any case.
