Public Relations/ Communications internship wanted!

Post by kaitlynabel » Fri Mar 08, 2013 5:40 pm

Moi! I am a Canadian student who is currently in the process of completing my diploma for public relations. In order to complete my diploma, I am required to complete an eight-week internship/work practicum. As someone who lived in Helsinki last year and loved it, I was absolutely delighted when my professor informed us we could complete our internships abroad and immediately began researching organizations in Finland to apply to.

I do not have a huge amount of working experience in the PR field, but due to the excellent reputation of the PR program I'm enrolled in and my motivation and eagerness to learn, I know that I would be a great asset to any organization. I have a great passion for writing, and have been well-taught when it comes to social media, internal communications, media relations, crisis communications and integrated marketing communications. I am a fast learner and a dedicated worker and I know that I would be a valuable contributor.

If anyone has any information about internships in the communications or public relations field, please contact me. Returning to Finland would be an absolute dream come true.

Thank you so much for your time.

I am an international student studying in Finland. I must say, it has been so difficult getting a place for internship without the knowledge of Finnish Language in Finland. Finnish Language skills may be required if you are to work in your field of study in Finland. IT students are the most fortunate ones. But I will not discourage you from your search. You never can tell who may need native English speakers for internship.

I have some contacts who need interns but not sure if you will be interested in what they have to offer. Anyway, if you need to know, PM me and I will send you the contacts.

Well I am an international student at communication field too and I had a lot of experience back in my country.
But it is difficult to find a place to do your internship if you don't know Finnish.
I am searching for three months now because I have the internship grant for my university but I haven't find anything.
But maybe you are luckier than me
