This internship offers academic credit for students and is perfect for anyone looking to gain experience in public relations and the fashion industry. We are seeking hard-working self-starters who can thrive in a fast-paced environment. Interns are expected to work 1-3 days a week (you choose your days) from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Monday through Friday. This is a 2-4 month commitment.
We have seven departments: Celebrity, Influencer, Media, Showroom, Events, Operations, and Business Development.
Showroom Team tasks include, but are not limited to: helping secure placements on celebrities and in magazine editorials, particularly with publications working alongside freelance stylists. You'll handle merchandise pickups and drop-offs, prepare items by organizing and bagging as needed, and assist stylists in the showroom and on set to ensure everything runs smoothly. Additionally, you'll help merchandise and maintain showroom aesthetics and gather images to pitch to stylists for their clients' upcoming events.
Celebrity/Influencer Teams tasks include, but are not limited to: helping secure placements on celebrities and influencers, assisting the gifting team with processing gifting requests, and monitoring for any new placements on public figures. In this role, you'll play an essential part in supporting our efforts to gain brand visibility.
Media Team tasks include, but are not limited to: placing clients in magazine and online fashion stories (such as Vogue, Elle, etc.), conducting editor outreach, managing gifting initiatives, and consistently monitoring for any product placements or mentions in weekly and monthly magazines as well as online.
Events tasks include, but are not limited to: build outreach lists of potential brand partners for our multi-brand events, provide administrative assistance, and aid in event production. There will also be occasional opportunities to work at our Los Angeles-based events. This position is ideal for someone organized and proactive, who's excited to gain hands-on experience in brand partnerships and event coordination.
Operations tasks include, but are not limited to: intake and out processing of inventory using our LaunchMetrics Fashion GPS system. Fashion GPS is a comprehensive inventory and event software that every department in our company uses on a daily basis. Operations also assists in personal and professional tasks for the CEO. Operations is in charge of all legal, human resources, and day-to-day business operations. While the majority of your internship will be focused on other departments, you will be asked to assist from time to time in the Operations Department as needed.
Business Development is similar to Operations in that it will not be the sole focus of your internship, but will have assistance as needed. Our Business Development team is in charge of researching new brands to outreach for representation. From this research, we then will start pitching these potential new clients with focused pitch materials.
