What our past interns have to say about their experience!

 

PINK Internships

An intern shares about her experience as a 2012 summer intern:

The editorial internship at PINK was an invaluable experience. Interning for PINK not only gave me more confidence as a writer, but also the opportunity to meet and network with some very inspiring career women. I am honored to have work published in LittlePINKBook, and I will be forever grateful for the experience. -Louise Cook

Another intern shares about her experience as a 2010 summer intern:

When I signed on as an intern for PINK, I never knew that the experience would be so rewarding. This internship fostered creativity and independence –  two traits that, I believe, probably exist as rarities in other companies and I still can’t believe how lucky I was to work here.

I don’t know where my career will take me, but the brief time I spent at PINK this summer challenged and, more importantly, inspired me.

All the best,
Jennifer Gambrell
