TPG is Looking for Paid Fall Interns in New York
This post contains references to products from one or more of our advertisers. We may receive compensation when you click on links to those products. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. For an explanation of our Advertising Policy, visit this page.
This summer we welcomed four fantastic interns in our New York office. They’ve had a chance to learn and write about the travel industry in New York and far beyond — one very lucky intern even got to spend a week on the road on TPG’s dime. This fall, we’d like to offer similar opportunities to a new group of interns. We guarantee it’ll be an adventure!
If you’re a college student (currently a sophomore, junior, senior or graduate student) who attends school in the greater New York City area and meets the requirements below, please email a resume and brief introduction, along with the internship you’re applying for, to internships@thepointsguy.com. Please also send along links to your social media accounts and any published work you may have.
