WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH
You'll work in one of our offices in North America for 8 - 10 weeks, usually over the summer. You'll be a part of a client project team, collaborating with colleagues and our clients to solve their toughest business problems.

You’ll gain new skills and build on the strengths you bring to the firm. Interns receive exceptional training as well as frequent coaching and mentoring from colleagues on their teams. This support includes a Partner from your local office or practice assigned to you to help guide your career as well as formal training in your first few weeks as an Intern. Additionally, you’ll receive guidance and support from your local office in the selection of client projects, helping you to develop your skills and build your network.
