Summer Interns

8 Week Immersive Program - Learn What a Career in Financial Services Involves

The Platinum Wealth Solutions of Texas Summer Internship program is designed to help college students gain real-world experience in the financial services industry while preparing for their own careers through licensing and prospecting.  Over the course of 8 weeks, interns will learn first-hand about a career as an advisor.  Interns will have the opportunity to shadow top advisors as they work with their clients work on networking, phoning, and building a network, and start their own client base by writing cases. Interns will also create a business plan for themselves as a new advisor entering the industry and present it to the leadership team. Our goal is to give our interns a realistic look into the pros and cons of financial advising so they can make an informed decision on whether the career is correct for them. 

Commit yourself to a productive summer and head back to school with a jump start on your career.
