Public Relations Internship

At Prosek Partners, the stories we tell impact the global economy.

Prosek’s Summer Internship Program offers undergraduate students the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in financial communications while beginning to build the skills needed for a career at a fast-paced, global communications firm.

Throughout the summer, interns will work alongside Prosek account teams supporting leading financial services, professional services, technology and B2B clients.
