“The internship program at Murphy Pohlad Asset Management was a pillar to my growth both academically and professionally. I’ve learned a tremendous amount about the investment industry that simply can’t be offered in a traditional academic setting. Getting a chance to research actual investment opportunities is both exciting and gave me insights related to countless businesses and industries. I know the research skills I developed at Murphy Pohlad will continue to serve me well wherever my career takes me.Arguably the most attractive elements of the internship program with Murphy Pohlad was the focus on individual growth and the firm’s culture. Everyone on the team makes a personal investment in your success. You have the chance to work closely with financial managers, investment advisers, as well as the firm’s organizational development consultant. This allows for a multi-dimensional learning experience and an opportunity for tremendous personal growth. Interns at Murphy Pohlad have the opportunity to have a significant impact on the firm’s success every day, which simply can’t be said for internships at large corporations.”
“Interning at Murphy Pohlad was a great experience for me. The team really helps build your knowledge and skill because the work you are doing is valued and used frequently. As an intern you’re taught how the firm makes investing decisions and how to evaluate companies. I learned so much about financial statements and what matters when you are analyzing them. It goes beyond what you will learn in the classroom.
Interns are also given the opportunity to present their work at team meetings, this helped me improve my presentation skills. One of my favorite things was just sitting in on meetings and listening to what other team members were talking about, whether about markets in general, industries, or companies. Another unique thing about the internship is that Murphy Pohlad invests in you as an individual, not just an employee. Getting to work with an organization consultant on personal development helped prepare me for future job opportunities.”
My time at Murphy Pohlad Asset Management has been extremely beneficial to my academic and professional development. This is not an ordinary internship and is unique in many different facets. I found that a lot of what I have learned while interning is relevant to many of the finance and accounting courses that I have taken as an undergraduate. This has helped to boost my performance both in the classroom and at the office.Another valuable feature that this internship holds is its length. Most college students will intern with a company for a couple of months during the summer and then leave once school starts in the fall. At Murphy Pohlad, interns will work full-time in the summer and part-time throughout the school year. This has given me an incredible opportunity to continue learning while improving my skills.
I have learned an immense amount about how companies and industries operate in the business world. This includes business models, financials, management strategies, and company capital structure. In my mind, the breadth of knowledge obtained at this internship is unparalleled. I am grateful for my time at Murphy Pohlad and I look forward to using what I have learned here in my future career endeavors.
