The opportunity: your next adventure awaits.

At EY, you define your success. The Launch Internship will serve as a launch pad to your career. We will provide you with the experience, exposure and knowledge needed to better understand who we are and the work we do in professional services so that you can figure out what you want and begin building your unique career.

Get to know us and find out if EY is the place for you. The EY Launch Internship is an exploratory EY experience. While each intern’s experience will be unique, as an EY Launch Intern, you can expect to work on real business challenges; support client teams; and maximize your hands-on experience with customizable, virtual learnings. Along the way, you’ll develop an understanding of our four integrated service lines — Assurance, Consulting, Strategy and Transactions, and Tax — our deep industry knowledge and inclusive culture.

While you explore the work we do, we’ll amplify your potential.
