Intern to Hire Career Pathway

Are you searching for a paid internship that can lead to full-time employment? Have you obtained your Associate degree within the last 6 months, or are you a rising college/university junior, senior, or graduate-level student majoring in accounting, business, data analytics, finance, economics, math or a closely related field? Are you interested in learning and gaining hands-on auditing experience while protecting the citizens of Pennsylvania?

You’ve come to the right place!

We offer internships during the summer, fall, and/or spring months - these positions are paid and operate on a hybrid (remote and in-person) or full-time telework schedule.

These internships are eligible for the department's Intern to Hire (I2H) program, which offers a flexible path from undergraduate internships to rewarding careers within the Department - participants who successfully complete a three to six-month internship and have either an Associate degree or Bachelor’s degree may be hired into a full-time position!
