Well first of all, the advertisement for this internship was misleading. Their ad stated "Public Relations Intern for Non-profit paid", which was definitely not the case. It's clear that they used marketing related words just to target people to apply.
When I first walked in it was the sketchy office that was blaring EDM music. A man with a super thick Dublin accent was at the fron desk handing out clip -boards. It was all very odd, but I just filled out the information anyways because I drove all the way up there. It was a super quick paper with questions like "Who inspires you the most?", "What qualities make you a good worker?" Then they called my name
They took me to this back room, where this lady with a super thick Irish accent starting blurbing out information so fast I can barely understand her. i didn't even get a chance to introduce myself. It became pretty clear to me that their a door-to-door sales company.
She asked me why I applied and I told her "I applied for the public relations internship because Im a PR major", and she seemed genuinely confused. I'm honestly insulted by this , company targeting actual marketing, public relations, and advertising majors to join their scam of a sales team.
Don't bother applying for this company if you spent 4 years earning a bachelors degree, go elsewhere where your talents and efforts are appreciated.
