Are you always the guy or girl in charge of the music whenever your fraternity/sorority/house/dorm throws a party? Or are you always responsible for editing the video or doing the designs in our group projects? If you’re either of these two and always the life of the party, then a part-time internship with Fig Media Incorporated might be a great way to spend some of your time this or next semester. Fig Media is a Chicago based creative agency that offers deejay, photography, and video services. They’re all about making events awesome, and then providing media that allows you to remember how awesome they were for many years after.
Fig Media offers three types of internships - deejay, video, and design. They’re more than happy to train a music lover with no deejaying experience, but they prefer their video and design interns to have demonstrated relevant talent in some way. Interns are expected to work a minimum of 15 hours per week with a total of 300 hours over the course of the internship. There don’t seem to be set internship periods, so you can feel free to apply whenever. There’s no mention of compensation, so we’re going to assume that Fig Media’s internships are unpaid. Fig Media also requires that their interns have a computer - preferably a Mac.
If you’re not sure whether or not you’d make a great intern for Fig Media, you can check out profiles of 4 of their interns on their internships page. These should give you a better idea of what internships with Fig Media entail. To apply for an internship, send a resume, cover letter, and your five career goals to info@figgy.net. Be sure to put “internship application” in the subject line. Interning with Fig Media won’t be all partying, but it’s hard to do an internship in deejaying without a little fun, right?
