WHAT IS DST? DST is a sports performance group who specializes in individualized training with athletes of all levels in every sport. WHAT TYPES OF INTERNSHIPS DOES DST OFFER?

DST offers several types of internships. We divide our internships into 3 categories: Performance Coaching: Description 2. Business Operations: Description 3.

Media/Creative: Description Each category of our internship has several avenues for learning and career development that is uniquely tailored to the individual intern. That’s right. We individualize more than just our training!

IS THE INTERNSHIP PAID? DST’s internship is unpaid. Having said that, we do understand there is value in the work being done.

In exchange for that value, you will receive mentoring, educational opportunities, DST gear, a place to workout for free, real world experience in a setting within your field of study and access to networks that can assist you in the long run. HOW LONG IS AN INTERNSHIP? We typically have 5 time periods that we use to structure our internships- 3 of which align with school semesters.

Dates may vary based on individual needs and institutional schedules. WHAT IS THE DAY-TO-DAY ROLE OF AN INTERN? The typical day looks different for each of our interns.

During your internship, you can be assured that your typical day will always involve shadowing, assisting and learning from our expert staff within your realm of the internship, while also working on ‘passion projects’ and other unique opportunities. WHAT KINDS OF ATHLETES WILL I BE WORKING WITH? This depends entirely on the location and individual schedule within your internship, and that will be discussed and determined within the interview process.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT TO LEARN? Much of the learning will come from real experience while being tutored by one or several of our expert staff members. You will also have access to our staff’s professional development sessions, DST’s online and internal resources as well as a guided learning project that we call a ‘passion project’.

IS THERE AN EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY AT THE END OF MY INTERNSHIP? While we nearly exclusively hire former interns, a successful internship is in no way a guarantee of future employment. WHERE WILL MY INTERNSHIP BE?

The location of your internship is determined by a combination of convenience, access, desired area of development and need. We have three locations in Houston, TX as well as one location in San Antonio, TX, one in New Braunfels, TX, and one in Glendale, AZ.
