Communications Internship

Practical real-world experience. Writing coaches and career mentors. And, of course, really good beef.
These are just a few of the reasons college students who are interested in the beef industry and communications should consider applying for our communications internships.
We need your help telling the Certified Angus Beef (CAB) story to our stakeholders across the entire beef supply chain.

Help us develop project plans and execution strategies to tell more beefy stories. Being a self-starter is important to your success, along with accountability and a desire to learn about all facets of communication.
Whether you want a career is journalism, public relations, marketing or anything else in the beef industry, we promise to equip you with the skills employers are seeking. Read more about where previous interns are now.
