Internship Opportunities – Marketing, HR, General Business - Summer and Fall
2026
Location: On-site, Roanoke, VA
Time Commitment: Minimum 12-15 hours/week
Duration: Flexible (semester-based preferred)
Compensation: For Academic Credit Only (but the experience is very much “paid in
real-world reps”)
The Not-So-Boring Summary
If you’re looking for an internship where you mostly watch meetings happen, nod
thoughtfully, and perfect the art of “per my last email,” this is not that.
These internships are hands-on, high-exposure, skill-building roles designed to give you
experience that’s often hard to find in traditional intern programs. You’ll work directly
with a team that lets interns do real work—the kind you can confidently talk about in
interviews without pretending you “led a cross-functional initiative” that was really a
group project.
We’ve hosted interns from Roanoke College, Virginia Tech, James Madison
University, Hollins University, and many more—so yes, you’ll be in good company.
We know how to make it work your time!

1) Marketing Interns
Support content creation for social media, email, and digital platforms
Help plan and execute marketing campaigns (yes, real campaigns)
Conduct market research and competitive analysis
Assist with brand messaging, promotional materials, and event support

2) Human Resources Interns
Support recruiting tasks (job postings, screening coordination, candidate
communication)
Help improve onboarding and internal documentation
Assist with employee engagement and culture initiatives
Learn HR operations and best practices in real time

3) General Business Interns

Create and update spreadsheets, reports, and workflow documentation
Support client coordination, scheduling, and process improvement
Help with research and analysis for business decisions
Jump into cross-functional projects as needed—because business rarely stays in

What You’ll Gain (The Real Reason This Is Worth It)
Hands-on experience you can actually explain in an interview
Mentorship and direct exposure to real business priorities

Portfolio-worthy work (especially in Marketing and Business)
A chance to build confidence in a fast-moving, real-world environment
Important note: These roles are for academic credit, but the goal is clear: meaningful
experience, real responsibilities, and measurable outcomes—not coffee runs and copy-
paste tasks.
