SOJ panel event--Internships In Major Media Markets

Now is the time for you to start seriously preparing for summer internships, and the most common question asked by students is “where do I start?”

Five of your classmates, all of whom won high-value large-market internships, have agreed to share the secrets of their success with you.

Date: Wednesday, October 23rd
Time: 7 pm
Location: Room 205, Martin Hall

The panelists are:

  • Lauren Nickle (Major League Baseball Advanced Media)
  • Kelsey Montgomery (the nonprofit Why Hunger)
  • Diane Jeanty (National Public Radio)
  • Mike Martin (NBC Universal and SportsNet New York)
  • Bryan Bumgardner (Scientific American

Topics will include:

  • Finding a high-level internship
  • Preparing a winning application
  • Winning the job
  • Surviving in the city
  • Making the most of the experience

This will be a very interactive presentation. No preaching. While these student panelists are outstanding, this is less about celebrating their accomplishments and more about distributing their knowledge to you.
