Internship Stats

The Motley Fool hires about 5 summer interns each year. These are paid summer interns in their Washington, DC area headquarters. Motley Fool internships include: brand/design internship, consumer insights/experience internship, journalism internship, and web development internships. 

Highlights

Motley Fool interns gain exposure to some of the best investment minds in the world. Interns receive a free subscription to investment products.

Another great highlight of a Motley Fool internship is the exposure and real work. Because The Motley Fool is a small company (couple hundred), interns are able to see all lines of business and are expected to do great work on real projects.

Internship & Motley Fool Overview

The Motley Fool is a multimedia financial-services company dedicated to building the world's greatest investment community.

Founded in 1993 in Alexandria, VA., by brothers David and Tom Gardner, The Motley Fool is a multimedia financial-services company dedicated to building the world's greatest investment community. Reaching millions of people each month through its website, books, newspaper column, television appearances, and subscription newsletter services, The Motley Fool champions shareholder values and advocates tirelessly for the individual investor. The company's name was taken from Shakespeare, whose wise fools both instructed and amused, and could speak the truth to the king -- without getting their heads lopped off.*

Pros:

- Access to management and founders at Fool.
- Cool office space in Alexandria, VA. It reminds me of pictures I saw from the Google HQs.
- Worked with the investment analyst team to research companies and help write material. Loved it.
- Published. Another thing that I noticed is that it's very exciting to publish online and then view the statistics behind readership.
- Learned a ton about investing.
- Learned a ton about direct response marketing.

Cons:

I wish Fool.com wouldn't ask for your email address as you read through some of their articles.

Advice for other students:

Be active and start a business. The entrepreneurial spirit is valued.
