Are you a smart, talented aspiring PR pro who wants to gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment? If so, Geben Communication wants to hear from you. We’re looking for interns (one to start March 1, and possibly a second one to start in the summer). Read on to learn more about Geben and how to apply.

Why intern with Geben?

• Experience a diversity of clients, ranging from one of 2011’s breakout startups and a brand-new, London-based app launching in the US … to an 85-year-old B2B business and local businesses and nonprofits.
• We bring a fresh approach to best practices. You’ll learn how to build media lists that incorporate traditional and digital media, improve your writing (press releases, blog posts, tweets, etc) and fine-tune your research skills. You’ll also learn how to launch and manage online communities, measure PR and social media outcomes, and develop social media content calendars.
• A fun, collaborative environment … and minimal grunt work. Our interns are a valuable part of our team. Instead of fetching coffee or making copies, you’ll be involved in brainstorming sessions, helping draft copy and learning how to monitor and measure social media. Our office is open with desks that face each other, we like to go to lunch together and we might have a slight Pandora Radio addiction.
