Strategic thinking will also be a part of the curriculum and each intern will be asked to develop and present a marketing strategy based on their experience with GradMail at the end of the internship.

Interns will report to a seasoned sales and marketing manager who will run the program from a remote location. The manager will have weekly calls with the interns to offer specialized sales training as well as to review activity from the week. Supportive encouragement and feedback are utilized to help interns develop professional abilities that fit their style

Approximately 10-15 hours per week will be required. Marketing Interns will be paid for each GradMail subscriber they secure with a potential bonus at the end of the program.
