PRINT ADVERTISING INTERNSHIPS

Two to three advertising positions are available three times a year to all undergraduates eligible for academic credit. Interns receive honorarium to cover expenses.

Interns spend three to five months contacting prospective advertisers, and drafting direct marketing and copywriting letters for each monthly issue. Interns also serve as real-estate and travel department sales support. PC and Mac computer data systems are used to update and research advertising files (File Manager, Act, Word, Excel).

Newspaper/magazine or marketing/sales experience is preferred but not required.

Students must have proof that they are receiving class credit from their college or university. This is a part-time position (preferably 20 hours a week), and a flexible schedule can be arranged.
