Communications, Journalism & Marketing Internships
As a communications, journalism, or marketing intern, you can work within a range or businesses and organizations that need writers, reporters, speakers, presenters, media specialists, and strategists to develop, improve and deliver their messages.
If your interests lie in Journalism, you can opt to work in news organizations, as a researcher, writer, photographer, or videographer supporting the delivery of news and information to certain audiences.
If your focus is communications or marketing, you can work within a range of organizations that are looking for ways to spread their messaging through various media channels.
Social development organizations often need help providing information to their beneficiaries, gaining support for their causes, and promoting their successes to a wider audience.
You may be interested in working with digital material such as websites and interactive platforms, crafting content for social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram, creating videos, writing blogs, and producing newsletters, as well as enhancing the organization’s website.
You may help produce print materials from posters and flyers to instructional workbooks. Use your writing skills to help share important public service messages. You might even apply your language skills, diplomatic skills, or persuasive skills within initiatives focussed on community and environmental initiatives.
You may be asked to contribute towards PR and Social Media campaigns, manage outreach campaigns, work on internal communications, or look for ways to adapt the messages to different audiences. As an intern, your global perspective and fresh approach can be invaluable to these organizations as you gain invaluable experience working on real-world projects.
Your time as an intern can help you build your communications portfolio while contributing to positive impacts.
