Testimonials
"My experience at ESPN 980 has been by far the best internship I have done since coming to college. I really felt that my web, design and video skills really improved and the projects that we did really made the experience worthwhile. I've been a sports fan my entire life and being able to create videos with the distinguished radio talent was really neat! I would tell anyone who wants to have a future in sports media needs to know how work the Internet and this internship covers it all. It is a great, fun, learning experience and I would do it all over again if I could!"
~ Amanda from American University
"Coming to intern at ESPN 980 has easily been one of the best experience's of my college career up to this point. The daily tasks I was assigned provided me an opportunity to actually use many of the skills I have worked on in school and on my own. Sports and web design are two great passions in my life, and I was able to tie the two together here more than I could have ever expected. I would highly recommend this internship to anyone looking to learn more about all types of media (because we literally dealt with them all!!!)."

ReplyDeleteI wanted to know if this was a paid internship or not?
I don't think I read that anywhere, of if they're are stipends or travel reimbursements.
Many thanks.
