Data Research Intern - Summer '26

Please only apply for the track you are most interested in. Applications will close on October 31st.

At Spotlight, we pride ourselves on leveraging insights from our client's analyst relations (AR) programs to inform our client's business decisions. The role of the Research & Intelligence (R&I) team is to develop methodologies to uncover critical insights from analysts, as well as other sources, derive findings from these insights, and advise our clients with actionable recommendations. As a Data Analytics intern, you will be working closely with Spotlight's R&I team to gather and analyze different data insight sources.

To be successful as an intern, you should be willing to help with any tasks assigned by a supervisor. Your work will be focused in a specific department where you will get a chance to immerse yourself in a specialty and gain transferable skills. You will receive a basic understanding of analyst relations and be involved in a few cross-team collaboration projects for an even broader view of the impact on Spotlight's work.

Following the completion of the program and evaluated performance, interns may have the opportunity to continue part-time or full-time employment.
