At NYISF, we believe that an internship is an important steppingstone towards a career in insurance. When you intern with an insurer, reinsurer or an organization supporting the insurance industry, you form valuable connections and gain useful hands-on experience. NYISF seeks to help aspiring professionals find an internship that fits their goals. On our newly launched internship page, find a list of New York Insurance Association member companies offering opportunities for current students looking to pursue a career in insurance. https://nyia.org/nyisf/internship-opportunities/
