Fall 2025 Public Relations Internship Program: Health
About Us
At We., we've spent decades at the intersection of technology and humanity, bridging the gap between what businesses create and how people experience those creations. We've learned that beneath even the most unruly situations — whether it's a global crisis, an emerging technology, or a sweeping organizational change—lies a simple human need. That need could be for trust, connection, safety, or a sense of purpose. But it’s always there. And it is only by uncovering these truths that we can make real, meaningful progress.
About The Role
Are you a passionate communicator looking to kick off your career in public relations? Do you want to be on the frontier of cutting-edge technology and help premier brands reach their audiences in impactful and meaningful ways?
We. interns experience the best in healthcare communications working with leading healthcare companies and have an opportunity to secure a full-time role at the agency following the program.
The 16-week Fall 2025 Internship Program (August 25 – December 12) is a paid ($22/hr.), full-time internship designed to provide valuable experiences that build a strong communications foundation for entry-level employees.
Interns receive customized industry and agency training, individualized coaching and feedback, and networking opportunities with peers and agency leadership. Additionally, interns have the chance to develop a sense of belonging with a cohort of peers, via one-on-one mentorship and/or the agency’s Employee Resource Groups.
