COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Next PR, an award-winning, integrated public relations firm, announced today it is accepting applications through March 15, 2025 for its paid summer internship program. The 12-week internship runs from May 26 to August 15, 2025 at the agency's Chicago office. Interns will gain real-world PR experience with direct client communications and engaging training opportunities.

The program is open to rising college juniors and seniors with prior coursework in public relations, communications or journalism who are eager for a hands-on experience at a dynamic agency. Interns will work 32 hours per week, Monday through Thursday, with at least two in-office days each week. Collaborating with experienced PR pros on a diverse range of services, including media/analyst relations, social media management and influencer relations, interns will gain valuable knowledge across the PR and communications landscape.

"As a past intern manager, it's incredibly rewarding to work with our talented interns, helping them bring fresh ideas to the table while guiding them on handling real client scenarios," shared Jackie Sales, senior coordinator. "Every intern leaves a unique mark on our agency culture, and it's inspiring to be part of their PR journey."
