What are the benefits of a remote communications internship?
As many of the world’s top communications companies move towards a virtual structure, the industry becomes increasingly flexible and global. Remote communications internships offer a chance to launch a location-independent career in one of the most internationalized fields. Our virtual placements embed top applicants with communications firms in every corner of the globe, and equip them with the experience necessary to succeed in the remote workforce.
Virtual placements are just as immersive and intensive as in-person roles and can be completed from anywhere in the world on a personalized schedule. Remote interns frequently enjoy more autonomy and control over their projects, resulting in extremely impressive portfolios and a strong sense of self-confidence. Each intern works closely with their assigned manager and team, taking part in both independent and group projects, and learning from experts in all areas of the industry.
Of course, one of the top benefits of a remote communications internship is the international community interns develop. Our virtual programs are designed to provide interns with the opportunity to meet and build relationships with other interns and professionals from all around the world. Our keynote speaker series offers the chance to learn from today’s top entrepreneurs, authors, and politicians, and gain professional advice in real-time. Career advancement training sessions and virtual happy hours offer further chances to mingle with fellow interns, and career coaching sessions offer time for one-on-one advice.
