An internship with Southwest is more than just a job—it’s an opportunity of a lifetime.
With our NoLimits Internship Program, Southwest Airlines can guarantee you more than just
another line to add to your résumé. Not only will you get hands-on business experience in your
particular field, you will also get to experience the Fun-LUVing Culture that makes Southwest
Airlines home to one of the most highly sought after internships year after year.
Where else can you…

An internship with Southwest Airlines is a unique and exciting adventure unmatched by any other.
Once you’ve experienced Southwest, there is nothing
that compares. I honestly would have come back
and cleaned toilets just so I could work here.
—James Freese

What’s great about Southwest is that they let you get involved and actually participate in
important activities. Just last week, I got to fly across the country to sit in on a customer
chat with Southwest’s CEO Gary Kelly and other senior level executives.
—Jackie Eagle, former Intern
I really enjoyed all of the different events that we had throughout the semester,
especially the ‘Not So Amazing Race.’ Not only do you get to compete and have
fun, but It’s a great way to get to know the other interns, whom you don’t
necessarily get to see on a day-to-day basis.
—Adi Dzebic, former Intern

I’ve had another internship before, and not only was this more memorable and
awesome, but the other did not come near as close to developing me into a
young professional and growing me as a person. In addition to contributing
to the work Southwest does, we became a close-knit group of friends, and
challenged ourselves in the separate development activities. To describe the
people here as great is an understatement; this is an experience I will never forget.
