You may have a college degree. You may not. Wherever you are in life, you can’t avoid taking on the working world. We know deciding where to start your career can be nerve-wracking, yet exciting.
At Work + Wealth, we know that everyone has great talents, skills and abilities they bring to the table. For this reason, we offer internships to people ages 16 and older. We welcome high school and college students (age 16 and up), people with very little work experience, retirees and people looking to change careers and need the experience. We gladly serve as a stepping stone to better careers for our interns.
Work + Wealth is not a company that provides boring, run-of-the-mill services. Our focus is to bring out the best in the people we serve in ways that capture their interest and promote the retention of lessons learned. Therefore our team needs to remain creative, sharing attributes with the world’s most successful, yet unconventional organizations. As we grow, we’re committed to maintaining a small-company feel with a team that helps us deliver services in big ways.
Interns selected to join the Work + Wealth team can apply for a three, six or 12-month internship depending on the type of internship they choose to complete.
In addition, we provide individually-tailored learning experiences for our interns to help meet their academic and career goals/requirements, along with the opportunity to earn bonuses and rewards.
