Spring 2012 Marketing Internship

We are offering one position for a highly competitive marketing/advertising internship for the Spring 2012 semester. The Royal Automotive Group Marketing Department has been offering this program for the last 4 years and has given its participants the opportunities to gain some very valuable resume content and professional “real world” working knowledge.

Specifically, this semester will focus on building a micro-brand that is currently in the basic stages of development. The intern will be responsible for researching topics, building content and writing for our blog. This content will also be published in the local newspaper (the Arizona Daily Star).

In addition, there are several fun projects that the Marketing Director will need assistance with (including special events, event planning, event coordination and social media campaigns).

—-Skills that the intern will develop & grow:
-Content management and project coordination
-Creative & Conceptualization skills
-Interpersonal and Interdepartmental skills
-Technical skills (word-press, graphics editing, video editing)
-Writing skills (you will be able to have ghost-written articles published)
-The intern will be able to gain a deeper understanding and experience in being able to take vague guidelines and turn them into tangible action items (a skill that many employers look for)

—-Time Requirements:
-A minimum of 10 hours per week is required, but ideally more is recommended in order to get the full experience

—-In order to be considered:
-Please send your resume and a brief explanation of what your professional goals are after school. The subject line must state “Spring 2012 Internship”

This experience is not for everyone — it is intended for a college student who has an interest in marketing and is not afraid to write and take some creative challenges to grow their portfolio. The internship is focused on building additional resume experience that will help them in future jobs after college.
This internship is not paid, but academic credit may be available depending on your circumstances. Due to the high number of applicants, not all inquiries may be responded to.
