Our annual Summer Internship Program is an excellent opportunity for students to gain exposure to different business career pathways across the Tradewind Group family of companies.
Interns work closely and network with a variety of professionals in insurance products and services, IT consulting, and real estate and equity investments. The objective of the program is to provide formalized training and learning opportunities across different business disciplines. In addition to general business knowledge, interns will gain hands-on experience within a chosen company, allowing for a greater focus and deeper perspective of that company’s business operations. During the program, interns will have the opportunity to work on a company/department-specific project that will further expand and solidify the knowledge gained during the 8-week program.
Applications are now being accepted for the 2026 Summer Program. The program runs from Monday, June 15, 2026 to Friday, August 7, 2026.

During this time, interns rotate across the various Tradewind Group family of companies. At each company, interns will learn about different sectors of business from professionals who specialize in those fields.
Starting in Week 2, interns will be assigned to their respective company and provided with on-the-job training within their departments.
Simultaneously, interns will work on company/department-specific projects that have real-world impact for the organization.
The final week will be a culmination of the past 7 weeks. Interns will present their company/department projects and share their experiences with the executive leaders of Tradewind Group.
“The most valuable experience that I have had from this internship is meeting so many new people. I have been able to create new relationships and long-lasting connections with all the other interns. Both the interns and professionals were all so kind and friendly, I am very happy to have been a part of this community.”
“My most valuable experience I had is getting dropped cold into real estate projects and getting a hands-on feel for how to calculate financials, understanding valuations, and how real estate as an investment operates.”
“My favorite memories with my fellow interns at Pacxa include impulsively partaking in the wellness fitness challenge as well as taking on two challenging projects that pushed us to work as a team.”
“My favorite memory with the other interns was volunteering at the Hawaii Foodbank. This experience allowed us to create better relationships with one another while addressing the issues of hunger in Hawaii.”
