Real Careers Start Here
Our fully immersive internships help you learn the ins and outs of UWM and the mortgage industry in a unique, hands-on fashion. And the learning process goes both ways. Our STMs bring fresh ideas and new perspectives to the workplace that give us the opportunity to grow and get better as a company. Once your internship is over, don’t be surprised if you receive a full-time employment offer or a letter of intent for after you graduate!
Summer Team Members Give Back
At UWM, when we say, “Service is everyone’s responsibility,” we mean it. Every summer, our interns take part in a large charity project that benefits our surrounding communities. From gathering backpacks full of school supplies for local schools to making fleece blankets for children’s hospitals and much more, STMs learn about a lot more than the mortgage industry. They also learn the value of making a difference.
Emerging Leaders Workshop
For those who are first-year or sophomore students and not yet eligible for a UWM internship, consider the UWM Emerging Leaders Workshop — an internship-like opportunity for younger college students that focuses on building leadership skills. We’ll teach you about our winning, people-first culture, the importance of emotional intelligence in the workplace, ways to build your professional brand, and you’ll even walk away with an official UWM certification focused on leadership development!
