PR Intern, Ying PR
Is Ying the right place for you?
Work hard. Have fun. No drama. That’s what it says on our office wall, and we mean it. We are the most un-agency agency you will ever work for, largely because we were founded by two geeks, Yinch and Allan, who simply didn’t know better.
What does this mean? You’ll get to:
- Work for bosses you can respect, and yet make fun of – in their face
- Support some of the most innovative (seriously cool) companies in the world
- Learn new stuff all the time, because we know we don’t know it all, and never will
- Work like hell, but have fun in the process (read: impromptu ‘band’ jams, meme fests, courtyard hangouts, and lots of eating and drinking)
- Come to work in whatever you feel most comfortable in – as long as it’s legal and there aren’t any client commitments
- Not fill up any timesheet. Yes, you read it right. No timesheets.
What will you be doing?
Everything, is the simple answer. The PR Intern will have a finger in pretty much every pie. Over the time you are with us you will learn to
- research and produce strong first drafts of great B2B content for some amazing brands.
- come up with and pitch story ideas to heard-it-all journalists who will need to be wow-ed.
- be involved in community engagement for our social media programs, with all the fun and agony of staying on top of a world that never sleeps.
There will be lots of learning, and you will have help from the seniors in the team, who will show you the way and bring you back to the path when you stray.
Are you the one we are looking for?
You’re probably completing your Comms degree or just starting out in your career and see communications as a career choice that allows you to do what you love – write and talk to people.
Agency life is not for the faint-hearted nor the slow-footed. The PR Intern we are looking for must be a high-energy multi-tasker who enjoys writing. We need someone who combines passion for all things B2B with a logical mind and an obsessive-compulsive attention to detail.
We are looking for a person who has curiosity about how the world works, and wants to dive deep into some pretty technical industries. You don’t have to know the industries we serve NOW, but you must want to learn about them.
Most importantly, we want someone who cares deeply about the work they do, to whom good-enough is never good enough.
Will it be fun? You better believe it. Check out our Facebook page and find out more about the kinds of things we get up to.
