If you’ve spent any time looking into media and marketing jobs in the Magic Valley, you’ve probably realized that options are limited. You might have found a job you’re interested in and ran into the conundrum of an entry-level position requiring X years of experience.
How are you supposed to get a job to gain experience when you need the experience to get a job??
Join the Rinard Media Internship Program
We started our internship program in the Spring of 2021 for a few reasons.
First, we realized that there was a lack of learning opportunities in the Magic Valley — especially for people interested in joining the marketing industry!
Second, we know that when passionate people are given the chance to learn and grow, they can quickly become skilled industry professionals. There is plenty of untapped potential in the Magic Valley that just needs a chance to grow.
Finally, one of Rinard Media’s main motivators has always been to invest in people! This incredible community has supported us and empowered our growth, and now we want to provide that same opportunity for growth back to the community.
Let’s talk benefits (we know you want to know)
Get Paid
Doing internship-work is doing real work, and deserves a real paycheck.
Real Work Experience
You’ll get plenty of hands-on learning experience that you can use in all of your future pursuits.
Unlimited Cereal Bar
This is pretty self-explanatory and delicious.
What you can expect from your time at Rinard Media
Industry Knowledge
We don’t expect you to be an expert by the end of your three-month or six-month internship program. What we DO hope is that you find yourself armed with enough industry knowledge and skills that you feel confident in pursuing your chosen career — even if it isn’t necessarily in the marketing field.

The Chance to Share Your Own Ideas
As much as an internship program is about US sharing knowledge with YOU, we also want you to share your knowledge and passions with us! We know you’ve got good ideas, and we want to hear them.
