Excellence in Internship Programming

Amtrak’s internship program offers a transformative experience for early career talent by providing meaningful opportunities for professional growth and engagement. Interns actively contribute to impactful projects while gaining exposure to industry leaders through unique events like lunch-and-learns with key stakeholders, including the CEO. The program fosters community through in-person luncheons at headquarters and celebrates achievements by hosting an award ceremony and recognizing National Intern Day. Collaborative events, such as hackathons, allow interns to showcase creativity and innovation. With a strong focus on professional development and an impressive intern-to-full-time conversion rate, the program equips participants with valuable skills and connections, setting them up for long-term career success.
