We are seeking qualified candidates for our Summer Intern Program, which will take place June 7 through Aug. 6 in 2010. This program presents a hands-on learning experience in a supportive, mentoring environment that provides participants with a realistic look at an insurance brokering career.
Consider a Career in Brokering
Our Summer Intern Program was created to dispel some of the existing misconceptions surrounding careers in the insurance industry and attract new talent to the field. In our program, we’ll teach you basic insurance concepts, and show you what a broker does and where Gallagher fits in the world of insurance. The experience provides you with a chance to assess a career in insurance, while Gallagher evaluates your potential as a future broker.
Although you might not have heard a lot about what brokers do, this career path offers tremendous growth potential. Ask any successful broker what he or she likes best about this job and you’ll likely hear some version of this response: “Freedom to create my own success.” As an intern, you’ll gain some perspective on what this means. Most of our summer interns discover that a career as a broker appeals to them and many of the participants become full-time employees after graduation.
Applications will be accepted between Oct. 1 and March 1 for the following summer. Students are encouraged to apply early, because positions could be filled prior to the March 1 application deadline.
