Calling all badass college students, we want you!
Yes, you.

 
8THIRTYFOUR is hiring not one, but two interns for the Winter 2018 semester! Our award-winning internship program is built on growing the next generation of professionals. This isn’t the stereotypical internship position; we won’t force you to make a Starbucks run (but we might politely ask you to) or pick up our dry cleaning. Instead, you’ll work alongside the 8THIRTYFOUR team as we develop marketing, design, public relations, and digital strategies and materials for small-to-large size companies in a variety of industries.
In case I haven’t convinced you to apply for our internship program, here are an additional 5 reasons why you should apply:

8THIRTYFOUR is a no-judgment zone

Our tight-knit team can be pretty weird, and we’re not afraid to show our true personalities. But hey, that’s what makes us so unique!

You’ll be accompanied by furry friends

Our office has always been dog-friendly, so get excited about the tail wags, slobbery kisses, and occasional begging that will take place throughout the workday.

We won’t judge you for a swear word or two (or three)

Because shit happens.

You’ll become a jack of all trades

As an integrated communications firm, we specialize in multiple realms such as digital, design, public relations, content development, strategy development, and more! As an intern at 8THIRTYFOUR, you will be introduced to all realms of our workplace, regardless of your communications/public relations title.

If you can survive 8THIRTYFOUR’s internship program, you will succeed in the real world

Not to scare you, but seriously. We will prepare you for the real world.

Something on Your Mind?

If you ever need proof that personal brand matters...Kim got to see the @nasaartemis II launch in person as a direct result of her Big Deal Energyâ„¢. 

You need to work hard, show up authentically, and provide value. That was her message to a room full of students and young professionals at @western_michigan_pmi's theProject Collegiate Competition. 

The Big Deal Energyâ„¢ Workshop is on June 23. Register at the link in bio.
Employers think Gen Z is lazy, entitled, and will quit the second things get hard. That perception is keeping you out of the room before you ever get a chance to prove otherwise.

The good news is, you can flip the script, but it will take some serious work and a personal brand, or as Kim Bode refers to it: Big Deal Energyâ„¢.

Kim is speaking at theProjectâ„¢ Collegiate Event, hosted by the Project Management Institute Western Michigan Chapter on April 14. She'll cover how to build a personal brand that actually sounds like you (not ChatGPT) and how you can show your value through social, content and networking.

No one talks about how lonely it is to own a business. The tough decisions land on you, the business doesn't pause when you need a break, and nobody - not your employees or your spouse - really gets it. 

If you know a business owner, tell them they're doing a good job. It matters more than you know.
The growth stage is the hardest part of building a business. 

Kim was recently quoted in @corpmagazine on what she sees running the Women's Entrepreneurial Fellowship: women who have built something, survived the hardest part, and are still doing everything themselves. The natural tendency to be humble and attached to their work creates unique business challenges for women; they put up walls because they can't be vulnerable. 

Meanwhile, when a woman CEO needs growth capital, she compiles three years of tax returns before a bank will schedule a meeting, while her male competitor closes the same deal over drinks.

When women have access to the right resources, they grow and invest back. Full article at the link in bio.
