Interns

We offer the stability of a Fortune 500 industry leader paired with a culture that cares about its people.

We are proud to be recognized as one of America’s Greatest Companies (2025), America’s Most Admired Workplaces (2026) and a Handshake Early Talent Award Winner (2026).

When you join us, you aren't just taking a job; you’re joining a team with a proven track record of excellence.

Every year, interns are hosted all across the country in D.R. Horton divisions. There’s no coffee fetching here—interns learn on the job and gain real-world experience in their chosen fields. Many of our interns find themselves joining the Horton family full time when they graduate.

With operations in 126 markets across 36 states, your career path isn’t tied to a single zip code. We have a national footprint that allows our team members to find opportunities in the places they want to live. Whether you’re looking to stay close to home or explore a new city, our scale ensures that your professional growth isn’t limited by geography.

While we are known for building homes, it takes a wide variety of teams to make it all happen. When you join D.R. Horton, you have access to many different career paths under one roof.

Whether you are interested in the financial side with DHI Mortgage, assisting our homebuyers with closing services at DHI Title and DHI Insurance, or the land and lot development at DHI Engineering and Forestar, we have a place for you.

We build more than houses. We provide the opportunity to grow your career across every part of the homebuying process.

Your summer begins at our corporate office in Arlington, TX where you'll kick things off with a multi-day orientation featuring onboarding, information sessions and networking with our executive team and your intern class.

From there, you’ll head to your assigned division for a 12-week program designed around a rotational schedule. You’ll spend the majority of your time in your core department while rotating through 2–3 other areas of interest to see how our entire operation moves as one.

To wrap it all up, we bring all the interns back to the corporate office for feedback sessions and a legendary Texas-sized send-off.

Do you like to work with your hands, or would you rather figure out the numbers? Work directly with homebuyers or handle their data behind the scenes? No matter where you see yourself in the homebuilding process, D.R. Horton has a spot for you in:

• Construction

• Sales

• Land

• Marketing

• Finance

• Purchasing

• Accounting

• Financial Services

• IT

• Legal

• Human Resources

• Multi-family

We don't just hire interns for a season; we hire them to become our future leaders.

Here is what a few former interns, who are now full-time team members, have to say about the transition:

• "D.R. Horton’s internship provided me with the hands-on experience and professional network I needed to hit the ground running. I felt like a valued member of the team from day one, which made my decision to stay full-time an easy one." - North Florida Construction Intern | 2014

• "The rotational aspect of the program allowed me to see how every piece of the puzzle fits together. It gave me a perspective on the homebuilding industry that I couldn't have found anywhere else." - Charlotte North Land Intern | 2025

D.R. Horton is continuously growing, offering endless opportunities for you to build a rewarding and long-lasting career with us.

Our leaders aren't just passing through; they've built their careers here:

⭐ Executive Team: Average 30 years with the company
⭐ Region Presidents: Average 20+ years with the company
⭐ Division Presidents: Average 15 years with the company

This impressive tenure is a testament to the growth paths and support we offer. Whether you want to become a Superintendent, Sales Manager, or Land Development Manager, D.R. Horton is the place to plant roots and watch your career flourish.
