Insurance Intern

Interns in The Horton Group Internship program, “Summer of Understanding an Agency” will be exposed to various aspects of an insurance brokerage. This internship will be hybrid – with a mix of working in office (Orland Park or Chicago, IL) and from home. Interns will be exposed to virtual and in person training in sales and service in areas of commercial risk management, employee benefits, personal insurance & safety/wellness consulting.

Throughout the summer, interns will be expected to attend external client webinars/events, Horton sponsored volunteer opportunities, professional development training, social events and various meetings to thoroughly understand the role of Horton as a brokerage.

Interns will also have the ability to take pre-licensing course work and a licensing exam for their Property & Casualty or Life & Health Insurance License by attending internal cohort licensing meetings.

The internship will provide a well-rounded opportunity to learn Insurance, in a fast-paced environment, from all aspects of the business and help give an understanding of the career paths available within The Horton Group from Client Service, Leadership and Sales.
