Full Job Description

Are you a recent college graduate ready to launch your public relations career? Do you want hands-on agency experience working with national brands, media outlets and experienced PR professionals? If so, Ripley PR’s Post Graduate Public Relations Fellowship Program may be the perfect next step for you.

At Ripley PR, we don’t believe in making fellows fetch coffee or sit on the sidelines. Our fellows work directly with client teams, receive one-on-one mentorship from senior PR professionals and gain real-world experience across multiple areas of public relations.

This fellowship is ideal for recent graduates who plan to build their careers in the Knoxville area and are seeking more than a temporary opportunity.

Writing blogs, articles and website content

Possess strong written and verbal communication skills
Be detail-oriented with excellent time management abilities
Demonstrate initiative and a willingness to learn
Work effectively both independently and as part of a team
Have a positive attitude and strong work ethic
Be able to work in our Maryville, Tennessee office Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Be interested in building a long-term career in the Knoxville area and growing professionally within an agency environment
