Men’s Design Intern – Spring 2023

• The health and safety of you and your Faherty Brand teammates is important to us! Covid-19 vaccination will be required to work in our office. **

About The Program

The Faherty Spring Internship Program is designed for undergraduate students who are interested in learning more about the apparel industry and want to gain hands-on experience at a rapidly growing business that has a vibrant culture.

Outside of the experience that you will gain from exposure to the business, you will engage in high-impact programming while building meaningful relationships with other interns and team Faherty through a variety of activities. This includes 1:1 mentorship, custom learning and development programming, and opportunities to impact business decisions.

We believe that traditional hiring practices have historically and systematically marginalized entire groups of people – including people of color, people of different socio-economic backgrounds, people in the LGBTQIA+ community, and people who are neurodiverse, to name a few. We are better as an organization when we work to deconstruct the barriers and build a team that has authentic representation from diverse communities, backgrounds and beliefs.
