Internships & Co-ops
A real-world experience isn’t “real" if you don’t
have a chance to get hands-on with the same tasks that our
full-time associates handle. That’s why we want you to cut your
teeth on the very same high-profile projects they work on.
You’ll apply the analytical and problem-solving skills you’ve
learned during your education to a real
work environment – getting actual work experience in benefits pricing,
financial modeling, incentive
plan benchmarking or investment studies.
Your unique intern or co-op experience will depend on the practice and
office you join.

Continuing Your Stay
After your internship or co-op, there is an opportunity to continue your
career with Watson Wyatt. Many of our interns do just that – accepting
a full-time position after only one season. Whether you use the skills
you learn at Watson Wyatt to become a full-time associate or you decide
on a career path outside of our company, your internship or co-op at Watson
Wyatt will provide you with the skills you need to get a head start in
your career and in life.
