The internship will bridge classroom learning and professional development through real-world projects
Signal Theory announces the selection of three interns for its competitive internship program. Aliya Kisivo, Audrey Stowe and Kaziwa Abdulqader joined Signal Theory earlier this month, bringing experience from various educational paths, including journalism, communications and business. They will extend their classroom learning by working on projects across Signal Theory clients in agriculture, animal health, food and retail.
“Giving our interns the opportunity to work within our client teams empowers them to contribute to active projects,” said Ali Mahaffy, Signal Theory co-CEO. “Our interns gain invaluable real-world experience while introducing the agency to diverse perspectives, new energy and fresh ideas.”
Through their roles in account management, public relations and content strategy, Signal Theory’s interns will perform work for clients like Bose, Merck, Michelin North America, AgroLiquid and Signal Theory. They will also collaborate on assignments designed to hone their project management and presentation skills and build their understanding of the integrated nature of client-based teams.
