What’s So Great About a PA Summer Internship?

A summer internship with Public Alliance is an excellent opportunity for you to gain valuable experience and insight into your chosen field. If you are pursuing a degree in advertising, marketing, public relations, or other creative major, a summer internship with our agency can be very beneficial. Why?

1. REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE. You’ll get hands-on experience in the industry. You can work alongside experienced professionals and learn about the day-to-day operations of an advertising agency. You can see firsthand how campaigns are created, executed, and evaluated, and gain an understanding of the creative process. And, when you’re looking for that first big job after graduation, you’ll be able to show employers that you’ve put your skills to work in real-world scenarios, not just the classroom.
   
2. NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES. You’ll have the opportunity to network with professionals in the industry. By working alongside seasoned professionals, you can build relationships that may be valuable in landing that first job after graduation and for opportunities later in your career. These connections can also lead to potential job opportunities or recommendations (some of our best employees started out as interns).
   
3. SKILLS DEVELOPMENT. You’ll have a chance to develop your skills and talents. Working in a professional setting will allow you to apply the theories and principles you’re learning in the classroom. As an intern, working with industry professionals you will refine your communication and collaboration, and writing and creative skills, which are all critical in the advertising industry.
   
4. CAREER INSIGHTS. You’ll gain confidence in your abilities and make informed decisions about your future career paths. By experiencing firsthand what it’s like to work in an advertising agency, alongside both veterans and those just entering the field, you can determine whether it’s the right career path for you, and if so, what areas of the advertising industry you may or may not want to focus on, and what you need to do to succeed.
