The Chicago Advertising Federation would like to formally announce the newly rehabbed CULTURAL CONNECTION INITIATIVE. Started in 1994 as the Partnership for Success program, the Cultural Connection Initiative is an effort to promote diversity in the Chicago ad community.
The CONNECT MULTICULTURAL INTERNSHIP is the signature program of the Cultural Connection Initative and provides bright, young, and diverse students the opportunity to gain valuable work experience and inside exposure to the ad industry in Chicago. Once selected, 10-15 students will actively participate in internships that range across a variety of advertising disciplines including Creative, Account Service, Media, Account Planning, Print Production, and more. Students gain practical work experience, establish contacts and are better prepared to assume an entry-level position with an agency upon graduation.
Please help us spread the word to any students you know who may be interested!
Selected applicants are placed at participating Chicago advertising agencies.
Please visit the CAF Website for more information and to apply online.
Application deadline is March 7, 2008.
If you have any questions, please email us at info@chicagoadfed.org.
