INTRODUCTION

Strikepoint Media is looking for 3-4 top-tier candidates for their internship cohort for the SUMMER OF 2021. 

Depending on availability, the internship could launch as early as the first part of May.  

IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to ongoing regulations from Covid-19, the beginning of this internship will likely occur remotely.  If and when restrictions are lifted by the State of California and the County of Orange, the internship will move to an in-office setting.  

ABOUT THE INTERNSHIP

Media Buying is quickly becoming a core focus of what we do here at Strikepoint Media.  That being the case, our Media Buying Department is developing a summer internship program specifically geared to find and develop the Media Buyers of the future!  

Do you have a pull towards the analytical side of marketing?  Are you an Excel whiz who isn't scared of diving into the data of ad performance?  

Then you might be just who we're looking for!   In this program, you'll be exposed to a variety of clients, campaigns, and projects across different marketing verticals. Throughout this experience, you'll work closely with our direct response Media Buying team and learn how to execute marketing ad campaign strategies that impact bottom-line revenue for our clients.

The ideal candidate will have a strong passion for digital marketing and execution, the hunger to learn and grow in a fast-paced environment, an eye for detail, and the ability to build great personal and professional relationships.

WHY WE WANT YOU

We're looking for young and hungry marketers ready to learn and help us keep pace delivering and optimizing campaigns for our clients.

WHY YOU WANT STRIKEPOINT

There is no better way to learn marketing than hands-on, daily experience with ad campaigns. You will get more out of the daily operations here than you would in the majority of traditional textbook education. We're not handing out definitions to be memorized… you're going to be helping us on the ground floor of these projects.

Get experience, get credits, and learn how to become a Google Ads guru.
