Role Description:

- Campaign Brainstorming: Collaborate with peers to brainstorm campaign ideas that empower others or address relevant, non-political and non-religious issues (e.g., body image, peer pressure, academic or college-related stress).

- Research & Focus Groups: Design and conduct focus groups, develop research questions, and gather qualitative feedback to better understand the target audience.

- Feedback Analysis: Review focus group responses, analyze patterns and insights, and identify opportunities to improve messaging and overall campaign impact.

- Iteration & Refinement: Adjust campaign concepts, messaging, and media based on feedback and data collected from research activities.

- Strategic Recommendations: Develop assumptions and make informed recommendations to strengthen clarity, engagement, and effectiveness.

- Durable Skills Application: Apply specific durable skills training—such as communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and initiative—directly to project work.

- Creative & Case Study Sessions: Participate in structured brainstorming and case study sessions designed to build innovation, creative problem-solving, and “outside-the-box” thinking.

- Metacognitive Reflection: Reflect on training experiences and project work using a metacognitive method to assess learning, improve performance, and increase participation.

A substantial part of this internship is a professional durable (soft) skills training program designed to help participants develop the skills that over 85% of hiring managers look for on résumés and in interviews. These are the traits, qualities, mindsets, and attitudes required to perform well in real workplace settings.

This is a professional, skills-focused internship, not menial work. The training is the same high-level instruction used in our Professional Durable Skills Certificate program and is intentionally integrated into the internship experience. Participants gain practical, employer-valued skills and leave better prepared—and more competitive—when entering the job market.
