ABOUT TRADE SCHOOL

Looking for an internship? You’re in the right place. Here, at Trade School, we call them apprenticeships. Why? Because we believe there’s art in learning a trade from a skilled employer. 

As an apprentice at Trade School, you can count on learning a range of skills related to media and content production. Part think tank, part creative agency, part production company, we are a group of scrappy and highly motivated craftspeople who are here to help you grow.

COPYWRITER APPRENTICE

You have a strong opinion on the Oxford comma or using ‘but’ at the start of a sentence and a weak spot for Moleskine journals. When you tell a story, people listen. You’re a master of language and lover of the em-dash—right? From a headline to a script, you understand the weight of words. You evoke emotion carefully but effectively. You’re a storyteller.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

2 MONTHS OF GROWTH

We make it a point to ensure our interns leave with a few extra tools in their proverbial tool belts. Each week, we train our interns on something new by means of sessions and panels, in addition to a summer-long project.

SHOW SOME GRIT.

Speaking up during a meeting or adding your ideas on the chat—we’re here for it!

Our interns are known for their legacies, not fetching coffee or making copies. Step in boldly with real work, clients, and make the magic happen.

EXTRA PERKS.
You’ll be paired with a mentor to learn from. They’ll help you grow and uncover your passions in this industry.
