Looking for an internship based in Memphis TN or Online.

Question

Hello,

I’m starting my DBA program and actively seeking internships or entry-level opportunities in Memphis, TN, or Online, to gain hands-on experience and build a foundation for a career in consulting. I’m open to roles at small firms or organizations where I can contribute and develop my skills.

Any leads would be appreciated.

Uroosh,

No specific leads from my side but I do have a tip:

Go on linkedin and look at some of the local firms in Memphis. See if there are any that would interest you in particular and then reach out to them with a polite email / call.

Best,
Cristian

Answer 2

Hi Uroosh,

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your situation:

First of all, I would advise you to check local consulting boutique firms and strategy arms of regional firms in the Memphis area.
Moreover, I would advise you to focus on personalized cold outreach - short, tailored e-mails or LinkedIn messages to founders or managers can open doors, especially if you offer a clear value proposition (e.g., research, analysis, or market entry work).

You can find more on this topic here: Boutique consulting companies.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on your specific situation, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen
