Communication & Marketing Internships

Anyone who is passionate about writing, managing content and media, overseeing public relations and creating promotional strategies is a perfect candidate for a marketing and communications internship. What matters most is your ambition and drive to help out in a do-good organization, not your level of expertise in any of these areas. Having enough confidence in your abilities and being willing to learn new skills makes you a great intern. 

If you’re looking to boost your resume, gain relevant work experience, or develop life-long skills, this is the means to do all three. Finding internships that allow you to learn new abilities while still being entertaining and invigorating is a difficult task. That’s why we’ve made sure to offer an experience which does exactly that. All we ask in return is for you to stay motivated, that way you will be able to achieve great things for both yourself and the non-profit you work with.

Another key component is being creative and communicative; during team meetings your insight matters, so don’t be afraid to propose original ideas which you strongly believe will be a success. Since teams are kept small and intimate, your voice won’t only be heard but also encouraged!

This depends entirely on the internship you are applying for; different internships require different skill sets, meaning you could need a sufficient amount of previous experience or none at all. This allows you the flexibility and comfort you need to develop new abilities in a stimulating work space. Overall, having a go-getter attitude and being enthusiastic about marketing and communication is enough to get you started on this worthwhile journey. For more information, be sure to check out the specific requirements in each individual internship page!

There are different responsibilities you can take on as a marketing and communications intern. The amount of skills and knowledge you can possibly acquire depends on how willing you are to get out of your comfort zone. If you’re curious enough, you can learn about search engine optimization (SEO), creating and publishing content on websites, managing multiple social media platforms, hosting interviews or other networking events, and so much more!

You’ll have the opportunity to build and expand your expertise in dynamic global settings. Within this context, your role will be vital for the pursuit of social and economic development in local communities, where your knowledge can change lives for the better. This experience will provide you with confidence and a strong skill set to tackle future challenges that will arise in your career. 

International work experience, especially internships in the nonprofit sector, look incredible on a resume. Employers worldwide seek to find individuals who have diverse and original experiences, which makes your internship abroad the advantage you need to stand out. On top of that, assisting a do-good organization is extremely enriching for your personal development. You deserve to feel confident and self-sufficient; what better way to improve your self-esteem then by helping others do the same.

Every marketing and communications specialist must be proactive in the face of adversity, knowing when and how to respond to our ever changing environment. Take the chance and let your internship be the stepping stone that will boost your career to success!

There are a few things you must consider before deciding on joining in-person or remotely. In some cases, internships can be strictly online or require going on-site. As for programs which are flexible about the modality, what must be considered is your own personal preference. 

Being on-site allows you to experience the project in its full bloom; befriending the locals, visiting attractions, and broadening your knowledge on the location’s multiculturalism and unique history. However, remote communications internships give the chance to work from the comfort of your own home and on your own schedule which is also worth bearing in mind. As long as you are able to give your absolute best, the modality you choose for your internship isn’t an issue.
