College Internship - Talent Pool

This application is for future, non-immediate University Internship opportunities across all departments at Destination DC. By submitting your resume and application here, you are entering our Talent Pool for upcoming roles in areas like Tourism, Marketing, Communication, Convention Sales and Services, and more. While this is not tied to a specific current opening, it ensures you are among the very first candidates we review when a position opens.

We believe in trust, innovation, and impact. Our culture is built on mentorship, collaboration, and psychological safety. You won't just be an intern; you'll be a contributing team member. We encourage curiosity, value diverse perspectives, and celebrate successes-both big and small. You'll be supported by dedicated mentors and work on projects that directly influence the business.

We view our internship program as our primary pipeline for full-time hiring. Many of our current leaders started right here. We offer resume workshops, networking events with executive leadership, and structured training programs designed to convert high-performing interns into full-time employees upon graduation.

While benefits vary by role, our internships typically include:

• Competitive, paid hourly wages.

• Access to our full suite of learning & development resources.

• Hybrid work options (where applicable).

• Team-building events and company perks.

This is a general interest opening. Please note that there is no immediate start date associated with this posting.

• Application Submission: Submit your resume, cover letter (optional)

• Review Process: Our Talent Acquisition team continuously reviews this pool.

• Next Steps: If your qualifications align with a future opening, a recruiter will reach out to you directly for an introductory call.

• Timeline: This process is ongoing. While some applicants may hear from us quickly, others may be contacted several months after their submission. We appreciate your patience and look forward to connecting with future innovators!
