Our Internship Opportunities
Are you interested in exploring consulting? At TiER1 Performance we offer paid internships in the spring, summer, and fall semesters. We seek high-performing students who lead with curiosity and enjoy a challenge. We strive to create a diverse and highly collaborative culture where interns can work with their mentor one-on-one to set their goals and grow! If this sounds like you, please keep reading.
Why a TiER1 internship?
We believe the best way to learn is to work alongside and shadow experienced practitioners—then dig into the work yourself. To hear from prior interns about their experience, check out this brief video.
Here’s How It Works
Who can apply?
TiER1 internships are for incoming seniors and graduate students who (1) are legally authorized to work in the U.S. indefinitely
(do not require sponsorship now or any time in the future); (2) can dedicate 36-40 hours per week for the internship; and (3) can work in our Cincinnati or Pittsburgh office at least 50% of the time (hybrid).
What's the timeline?
Applications are typically open mid-September, October, January, and May.
If applications are not open, it’s because the upcoming internships are filled.

Scholarships
While TiER1 internships are open to everyone, our scholarships are intended for students who accept an internship with TiER1 Performance and experience significant financial hardship that create barriers to completing school or participating in our internship.
If you are offered and accept an internship, you’ll then have the opportunity to apply for a student scholarship. The scholarship has a separate application process where you can share more about your financial needs and how the awards would help you.
If you accept a TiER1 internship and are awarded a scholarship, you can apply the $2,500 toward tuition payments and/or housing and transportation costs during your TiER1 internship. Please note that the scholarship is in addition to your internship pay.
