The Harold Burson Summer Internship Program (U.S.) 

The Harold Burson Summer Internship (HBSI) Program is a paid internship at one of the U.S. Burson-Marsteller offices listed below.  Each intern is assigned to a client team or practice group.  During the internship, students work closely with experienced industry professionals.  HBSI interns are given the opportunity to work as a team member, while gaining valuable work experience.  Colleagues from different specialty areas of Burson-Marsteller conduct seminars for interns each week.  Interns are also grouped into teams where they work on a special HBSI project, which they present to a senior management panel for review at the conclusion of the internship.  The summer internship offers an invaluable career-development experience that can often lead to an employment opportunity with us after graduation.
