Barkley Public Relations is looking for two full-time summer interns to work with us 40 hours a week from Monday, June 4, through Friday, August 10. Participants can expect to manage short-term and long-term tasks, sit in on client meetings, shout out the next big idea at brainstorm sessions, hone writing, editing and research skills, pitch media and form meaningful relationships with their fellow employees.
Our expectations for participants are set higher than the norm. Candidates must display energy, passion and creativity. We’re looking for people who seize responsibility and run with it. We expect superb writing and analytical skills, self-motivation and an ability to manage one's time well. Our interns have the opportunity to accomplish the same tasks we ask of our account managers, which will help them make the transition to full time employment once they graduate. Interested applicants must be current students; we cannot accept college graduates.
To apply please email a resume, cover letter and any relevant writing samples or portfolio materials to Miriam Olsen at molsen@barkleyus.com. Deadline for submissions is midnight on Sunday, April 29.
