Dear students, I’m writing as the English Internship Coordinator, to let you know about an opportunity for students interested in a career in advertising. You can learn more aobuu the Multicultural Advertising Intern Program below. Note that the application deadline is October 31. If you’re interested, I suggest you make an appointment with the Career Center<https://www.qc.cuny.edu/StudentLife/services/career/Pages/default.aspx>. They can help you with your application materials. I’m happy to look over materials, but they will know more than I do about this one. Also, it’s a good idea to get to know the advisors in the Career Center, so they’ll have you in mind when opportunities come along.
