Interns are at the heart of BLND Public Relations and we are so excited to introduce our Summer 2019 class of interns! A public relations internship is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of PR. At BLND, our interns learn from some of the best in the biz and handle their own tasks and clients. Intern tasks include everything from traditional PR such as writing and sending out pitches, creating media lists, and conducting news sweeps. Our interns are also super involved on social media. They assist with content creation, publish to clients’ social media accounts, make graphics for Instagram stories, and much more. Get to know our summer interns below!
