About Our Internship Program

Being an intern at Platform isn’t one of those internships where you spend every day grabbing coffee and re-filling the paper in the printer. As an intern at Platform, you will be working directly with us to help tell powerful stories and achieve real results for our clients. You’ll work closely with every member of our team from each of our divisions of services – public relations, public affairs, marketing and digital, and message development.

One day, you might help pitch reporters for an event. The next day, you might draft social for the month for one of our clients reaching thousands of people. Then, to round out your week, you might work to help our marketing and digital team review and optimize our statewide or national ad campaign.

As a team that works so closely, you’ll also be able to interact with every level of our staff to gain experience in a fast-paced, fun environment, allowing you to develop practical skills and build your professional experience.

But, don’t take our word for it. Below are some real people who have gone through Platform’s internship program and what they had to say about their time here.
