Whether the goal is passing an important piece of legislation, guiding an organization through a crisis, or addressing an entirely new challenge, our interns serve a vital role as we help clients shift public perception.
BREAKTHROUGH RESEARCH
Using skills in data compilation and analysis, our research interns dive head-first into activities that gauge public opinion and identify critical insights that can make or break a communications campaign. Interns get hands-on experience in executing research designs, conducting primary research, and helping turn complex problems into compelling solutions.

Dynamic and hard-working interns with exceptional writing and design skills and a passion for social media analysis and digital marketing strategy will thrive in this creative environment. Interns will focus on clients’ social and digital needs for content development, advanced online advertising, and issue advocacy.

Compelling online content drives conversations, and Sachs Media Group’s award-winning web development team gives interns a unique opportunity to work on projects that engage audiences and achieve objectives. Interns should be familiar with HTML, CSS, Javascript, JQuery, PHP, and Content Management Systems including WordPress and Drupal.
