Intern
(Internship) posted on 08/28/09
The IRU intern program provides an opportunity for college juniors and seniors to learn about the reinsurance industry and gain practical experience in its operation. It also provides the intern an opportunity to evaluate reinsurance as a potential career. Sponsorship of an intern is by participating IRU members. Each intern will spend eight weeks during the summer gaining "hands-on" experience in the reinsurance industry. In an effort to maximize the intern's exposure to the overall business, it is intended that each intern would spend four weeks with an underwriting sponsor and four weeks with an intermediary sponsor. Due to logistics, this ideal situation is not always possible. At the conclusion of the program, each intern is required to submit a paper to the IRU Internship Committee. The paper should evidence the depth of knowledge attained in a specific segment of the business via the internship experience, as well as outside research. Each intern is encouraged to select a topic that is of particular interest to them, utilizing the expertise of their sponsors and the contacts made during the program. The papers will be judged by the Internship Committee. The intern submitting the most outstanding paper, as judged by the committee, will be eligible to receive a $2,500 scholarship and may be invited, as a guest of the Association, to the following Spring's IRU Meeting. The selection committee reserves the right to split the award in the event of a tie.
