Happy National Intern Day! Today, we’re celebrating National Intern Day in the United States and thanking each of our interns for their teamwork this summer. Here’s what a few of them have to say about their experience:

Jayson Swain, PN New York

“The best part of working at Porter Novelli is getting to see a for profit organization making social awareness a part of its business model. There are a lot of communications organizations and even nonprofits that are able to consult on things like socially responsible and purpose-driven work, but Porter Novelli is one of the few fostering that mindset from every tier of the company.”

“Our favorite part of working at PN this summer has been experiencing new practices by working across many accounts in various industries with such a great team behind us. We’ve learned so much and have met wonderful people along the way!  PN has been a great place to grow and try new things.”

Katie Varan, PN Atlanta

“The best part of my internship this summer has been the opportunity to get hands-on experience doing what I learned in school. Everyone I’ve worked with is so helpful and supportive and it feels great to be a part of this team.”

Katy Bozich, PN Chicago

“The best part of my internship at PN has been contributing and working on a variety of clients and projects. I have gotten to be a part of so many fascinating projects such as influencer event planning, media audits, digital strategy development and so much more. Everyone at my office has done a wonderful job making me feel welcome and fostering an environment where I can really see myself growing as a young PR professional!”

Kristen Solomon, PN New York

“I was thrilled to move to the Big Apple to launch my career at such a special, purpose-driven agency. The best part of my internship is the joy of working on a spectrum of different accounts in oncology, rare disease, immunotherapy and vaccinations, learning from and working alongside some of the best and brightest in the business.”

Sheridan Holmes, PN Los Angeles

“The best part of my internship has been the opportunity to learn about the different roles in PR and having the chance to work directly on accounts. I love that I’m able to work on a few different projects, which allows me to experience the differences between practices, such as health and consumer. Another part of my internship that I love is the mentorship I have received by everyone in the Los Angeles office. They have provided me a very supportive learning environment by encouraging me to set goals, teaching me about their work, and offering valuable advice that I can use in my career moving forward.”
