I Can’t Find an Internship!

Many students, at the end of February, start to feel anxious about finding an internship. Let me start this blog post by saying there is still a lot of time to find an internship, but you need to kick it into high gear now! Back in the fall, in COMM 400, I told you the following.

  • You start looking in January.
  • You apply for 10 internships a week through Indeed or other sources.
  • You meet with Dr. Lenze early in the spring and as often as needed till you get an internship.

So, how are you doing with that plan? Are you applying to 10 a week? Have you been to see me during office hours? Did you start looking and applying in January? If the answer to any of those questions is no, then start now!

  1. Update your account on Indeed. Upload your resume, reference letters, and any other relevant documents and start applying!
  2. Visit Dr. Lenze. Office hours are MWF 9-10 and MW 1:30 – 3. Other times by appointment. Zoom appointments available!

It is not too late by far! But you can’t wait any longer! I hope I see you soon!

Marketing Internship in Pittsburgh with River Point Realty

We’re looking to bring on at least one, possibly two, summer interns to assist with marketing. This role will primarily focus on content creation, including graphics, photo/video production, and social media management. Additionally, interns will gain experience in event organization, advertising, and related administrative tasks.

We are based in Pittsburgh and although this will be a mainly Word From Home (WFH) job, there will be times they’d be needed to come into the office, so local applicants are encouraged.

If you are interested, email me your resume. I’m happy to provide more details or answer any questions.

Email: andrea@riverpointpgh.com

Looking forward to hearing from you!
