When it comes to applying for your very first job, there is nothing that looks better on a resume than an impressive, hands-on internship at a company in your field of interest.

Whether you are looking to become a top online marketing guru, a social media whiz or an SEO-inspired content writer, having a great internship can provide you with invaluable tools and knowledge from people who are already in the field. Plus, it can also open the doors to entry-level positions with the company you interned for once you have graduated!

With that being said, we here at The Zen Media Group are excited to be looking for a great group of college students to intern with our company in 2014! As one of Inc. Magazine’s Top Entrepreneurial Companies in the 30 Under 30 rankings, as well as one of the 100 Best Companies in the U.S. to be run by a young entrepreneur (two years in a row), an internship at The Zen Media Group is a great launching platform for any student with a interest in online marketing!

Each of our internships give students valuable first-hand knowledge in all areas of digital marketing, and will allow them to work closely with the leaders of our SEO, content, social media marketing and management departments for a hands-on learning experience. Plus, you can do all of this while still in your pajamas! (Did we mention we are a virtual company?)
