Internships
The Suasion Internship Program positions itself to be a step above traditional apprenticeship programs. Suasion’s interns are integral members of our team. Accordingly, with the guidance and support of senior staff, Suasion interns aid in executing marketing and communication tactics while gaining real-world experience. Through Suasion, students gain an understanding and appreciation for the services we provide, while helping to fulfill our social mission by directly impacting the lives of individuals we serve.
Anticipated Duties & Responsibilities
- Conduct market research
- Write copy for news releases, Web sites and brochures
- Participate in creative thinking and brainstorming sessions
- Create and update databases
- Participate in event planning
- Attend client meetings
- Assist with design of PowerPoint presentations
We understand students have classes, jobs, and other responsibilities; therefore, we offer both full and part time internships. However, we highly recommend students intern for at least 10 hours a week. Our goal is to provide an experience which will aid students in finding their niche; identifying areas of interest and those they may wish to circumvent. We also believe the more time students spend applying classroom concepts, the more beneficial the learning experience.
Suasion’s internships are unpaid. Although we highly value the contributions of interns, in order to facilitate non-profit and mission-based for-profit clients, Suasion must employ a leaner and more cost efficient structure.
