Interns are aligned with a specialized business area to build technical knowledge through meaningful assignments and projects. Program activities include structured orientation, goal setting, mentorship, inclusion and diversity initiatives, group presentations, performance reviews, training, case studies, speaker series, and networking events. Within Financial Solutions Trade Credit Placement, interns support WTW’s Broking teams as they help clients address business and risk management needs.
