Media Relations Intern
Summer Internship Experience - Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Media Relations Team
The Media Relations team at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) is looking for an energetic summer intern who’s eager to gain real world experience in health earned media. Rising seniors studying Communications Media, Journalism, or Public Relations, who share a deep passion for health and healthcare are encouraged to apply!
**We're accepting resumes (along with a brief cover letter detailing what they hope to contribute and learn) until March 25.
About the internship: Our summer intern will work alongside a powerhouse team of earned media pros supporting various media and communication initiatives, including daily media monitoring, news trend spotting, researching and building media lists, and sourcing new and emerging media platforms. You’ll assist the team with story development, help coordinate interview logistics, contribute to drafting media materials, and participate in team brainstorming sessions.
This hybrid opportunity provides hands-on experience at media shoots, interviews, meetings, and major hospital events; therefore, applicants should live in the greater New York City area and be able to join us onsite at our East Midtown office as well as MSK’s Upper East Side campus for these high-impact, in-person opportunities. This is a paid opportunity (no relocation expenses will be covered), and candidates should be available June-August. All students who will be onsite even one day must be medically cleared by MSK's Employee Health & Wellness team. This includes providing proof of the seasonal flu vaccine.
Come learn from the team that helps share MSK’s groundbreaking research, expert insights, and patient stories with the world!
