Calling all upcoming college grads: Do you love entertainment? And how technology makes it easy for people to discover and enjoy it? And want to work with some of the brightest minds to shape the culture? Then check out Netflix’s New Grad program.
In this new program, recent college graduates are hired into full-time roles at Netflix and participate in a year-long program to build their network and professional skills. The roles are based in the U.S. and span teams like data and insights, creative production, with most of them in engineering (for now!).
For years, Netflix mostly hired people with many years of experience. Not anymore. As we wrote in our culture memo, Dream Teams are about performance — not how senior you are or how long your career is. We want to do a better job of fostering players from the development leagues so they can become the stars of tomorrow. That’s where you come in.
You’ll work on projects alongside seasoned Netflix employees that will be experienced by millions of entertainment lovers around the world. And you’ll also participate in programming to help you build connections and on-the-job skills, including technical education (for engineering roles), professional development sessions to support your career growth, and fun activities for you to build a sense of community with other New Grads, your teams, and other Netflixers.
But unlike programs at other companies, you will get to experience the magic of Netflix’s culture of transparency, high performance, compassionate feedback and flexibility. We’ve also developed personal development workshops to help New Grads thrive in their first job out of college — like “How to Navigate Imposter Syndrome” and “Personal Finance Fundamentals.”
The first cohort of new grads just started this month (pictured below on their first day), and we’re hiring for the next cohort to begin in summer 2023.
This is just one example of how we’re building a strong pipeline of emerging talent and inviting new perspectives into Netflix. We also offer 12-week summer internships where participants work on similar impactful projects and a technical bootcamp for current college students to learn technical skills like Java, data science, or UX/UI design.

Throughout my career I've benefited from programs like these that have shaped who I am today. I see myself in a lot of early-career talent, so I'm immensely proud that I can play a role in creating opportunities for them. So if you’re looking for your first full-time job after college — consider Netflix as a place to start your career! Apply here.
