McLarty Associates work as private sector ambassadors who help their clients to navigate the complexities of international markets, and the strategic and operational obstacles they may face. They pride themselves on their staff of highly qualified individuals who are committed to providing high-quality service to their clients. McLarty is currently seeking participants for their paid graduate internship and fellowship programs. They are looking for highly motivated individuals who have an interest in the field of international strategic advising and have a strong background in international studies or another related field. The focus of the internship is on research and writing; however, selected interns/graduate fellows are viewed as active participants in the entire client services process and get exposure beyond research.
Individuals who are currently attaining, or have obtained, a Master’s degree are eligible to be Graduate Fellows.
The summer semester lasts from June until August.
