A strategic resume, flawless cover letter, and multiple interviews filled with well-thought out (and rehearsed) answers were all in the recipe for landing this position. Born and raised in West Michigan, I wanted a taste of something new and to challenge myself personally and professionally.
My two rules for applying for internships were: (1) Not in Michigan (2) Real PR work (not making copies and coffee). From an all-inclusive trip to Las Vegas to phone interviews in each US time zone, my journey to find the perfect summer job was long but exciting.
My internship search was unique to say the least. I guess it would be appropriate to begin with how I ended up in Vail, CO (1,500 miles away from home) working for a classical music festival (without any classical music/ arts experience). How: Google searching, previous internship experience, awesome PR program at Ferris
Why: Unlimited concert access, amazing organization and free housing Where: Vail, Colorado (“Like no place on Earth”) What: Bravo! Vail Music Festival (six week music festival located in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of Colorado) Marketing / PR internship
