Job Description

August Jackson (AJ) is now accepting applications for summer 2016 internships in our Washington, D.C. and Chicago offices.

About August Jackson: AJ is a world-class communications design agency. We have expertise in planning, designing, activating and measuring strategic communications campaigns, live events and meetings, and digital/mobile engagements.

We serve clients ranging from major corporations and brands to nonprofits, and we’ve produced programs in 18 countries across five continents.

What You Can Expect:

  • Daily responsibilities will range from supporting internal initiatives and organizational functions, to hands-on work with AJ teams on strategic, creative and production-focused projects.
  • Interns are often involved in client-facing situations which provide real-world exposure, and may be asked to travel for meetings and events, depending on location and internship focus.

Additional Details:
