The Dershowitz Group’s Intern Speaker
Series provides a unique opportunity for interns to interact
with influencers in Washington. The series is held twice
monthly.
The Intern Speaker Series is especially
unique because it enables our interns to be project
managers. Interns take turns organizing and implementing
each speaker program and are responsible for every aspect of
planning. The Dershowitz Group invites area interns to join
select programs.
