Summer is right around the corner, and for the 3rd year in a row we are opening our door to South Florida students seeking a summer internship.
South Florida is a long way from Silicon Valley, but Elite Strategies can offer a taste of what it is like to work there. We are a full service internet marketing agency with a team of in-house professionals. We have worked with some of the top brands in the industry and have continued to show steady growth each quarters.
We are not looking for warm bodies to fill our seats to do repetitive tasks. We are looking for intelligent individuals that will help our company grow, and that can benefit from our organization.
Types of majors we cater to:
Business and Marketing
We are an internet marketing company, so this is right up your alley. We work hands on with small to medium sized businesses of all types.
Quite often we talk with businesses both over the phone about their ROI, marketing plans and budgets, and other day to day business discussions.
Computer Science
We design and develop full scale content management systems, eCommerce systems, and mobile interfaces. If you are a computer science major looking to get hands on experience in a production environment this is the internship for you.
We ship at least 1 full scale website every week from soup to nuts so you will get a chance to take part in every aspect of website design and development, app development, mobile site development and more.
Communications
Communications is a broad major that deals with a lot of different skill sets. Interning at Elite Strategies will give you lots of experience in a number of different areas.
English
Who says an English major isn’t a marketable one? We love English majors. We are constantly seeking individuals who are industry savvy and those that are creative and free-thinkers.
Schools we work with
We currently work with Lynn University, Florida Atlantic University and Palm Beach State College.
If you are a student of another school and would like to apply, please let us know and we will do our best to work out a deal with your school.
Cutoff date
We have 5 slots available this year. All slots were filled last year within 3 weeks.
Enrollment is open now, and will be closed on July 1, 2014.
Curriculum
Depending on your major and skill sets, we will develop a personalized curriculum to take advantage of your strengths and develop new ones as well.
You will be assigned to an Elite Strategies team member who will help you through your internship.
Sample Curriculum for 20 hour / week internship
design & create social media profiles for clients
utilize social media management program to manage client social media
communication with clients
finding guest blogging opportunities within the industry
interacting with influencers on social media
utilizing HTML, CSS and Javascript to design and develop websites
editing source code on existing websites
assisting with creation of web properties
much more
Again, depending on your skills and interests we will work with you on your own personal goals.
If you are a skilled designer but would like to learn more about coding and development, we will work with you on that.
Challenging and fun
One thing we promise you is you will be challenged and you will have fun.
We have lots of fun technological toys, great snacks, intellectual conversations, and sometimes even lunch.
Getting hired
In the past 3 years, we have hired 75% of our interns. Interns that demonstrate a passion for internet marketing, excellent communications skills, and attention to detail will have an opportunity to get hired as a full time employee of Elite Strategies.
