Event: Exploring Legal Careers at the WBG

 

The World Bank Group (WBG) offers a wide range of career opportunities for legal specialists interested in international development.

This interactive session brings together lawyers from across the WBG—including the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID)—to explore the types of jobs at the WBG that require a legal background and how to pursue them.

During the session, speakers will discuss:
• What their organization does and how it relies on legal professionals
• Their specific roles at the WBG
• What led them to a career at the WBG
• Their advice for young professionals interested in charting a similar career path
