Wanted: Super intern with X factor

I recently heard about a great internship-meets-apprentice style opportunity for PR students via Andy Barr of 10 Yetis fame. “Wanted: Super Intern” is an innovative event organised by London Met student, Ekaterina Aleksandrova which will take place at the university’s Moorgate Campus on Monday 17 May 2010. The day involves a competition against fellow PR students with the prize of an internship at a leading PR consultancy awaiting the winner. The judging panel will be made up of senior staff from Lansons, PHA Media and Phoenix.

The judges will present a brief for the students to tackle who will then be scored on creativity, teamwork, attention to detail, strategic thinking and other personal and professional qualities. Three winners will then be selected for a one-month unpaid internship with a possibility of further extension. Credit must go to Ekaterina for showing such great creativity, initiative and planning – three skills employers always prize in graduates.
