The Brinker Simpson Internship Program goes beyond traditional on-the-job training—it’s an opportunity to explore a rewarding career path with our firm. We understand the importance of internships that blend practical experience with meaningful client interaction, which is why our program is designed to provide hands-on, impactful work.

This fall, we were thrilled to welcome two exceptional interns to our program: Lizzie Simpson, a student at Saint Joseph’s University, and Sophia Tobin, a student at Penn State University. Learn more about their journeys and experiences below.

At Brinker Simpson, nurturing talent is about more than just creating opportunities—it’s about building lasting careers. Ready to start your journey? Visit www.brinkersimpson.com/careers/students-and-interns to learn more.
