Summer Internship 2022
Are you a champion conversationalist that can talk to your friends about anything? Are you looking for an experience that will allow you to be all-in learning about public relations and integrated communications? Do you have a sense of humor worthy of its own stand-up routine? Then maybe you’re made for an internship at Peppercomm!
Peppercomm is seeking outgoing, motivated and creative candidates for our paid internship program. Our interns, who we like to refer to as ‘The PepSquad’, work a full-time schedule allowing them to gain hands-on exposure to the integrated communications industry. The internship program offers various positions in communications based in our New York office. This will be a hybrid working arrangement with a portion of the time as “remote” work and in-office presence at least 1-2 days a week.
PepSquad members are supported by the Intern Committee and paired with a buddy to help show them the ropes of the agency. As part of the team, they will be treated like an entry-level communications pro. The paid internship ($15 per hour) session will run from 6/8/22 to 7/29/22.
The deadline to apply is 4/8/22 and applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.
