The Brinker Simpson Internship Program offers students more than just on-the-job training; it's a chance to truly explore a career path with our Firm. We understand the importance of finding the right internship that combines practical experience with real client interaction. That's why our program is designed to provide hands-on work that matters.

We're always searching for interns who are academically bright, problem solvers, team players, and eager to face new challenges. The program provides young public accounting professionals with real-world experience in audit, tax, and business advisory-related services.

This summer, we welcomed three young professionals to our comprehensive internship program: Gracie Horton from Eastern University, Tyler Kennedy from Neumann University, and Cassidy Joner from Lock Haven University (Commonwealth University of PA). Learn more about our interns below.
