For the second year in a row, the world’s sweetest internship seeks applicants interested in developing communication skills while experiencing the development and manufacturing of iconic confections.

This year, two paid interns will wok for eight to 12 weeks in either the company’s global headquarters in Chicago or in the US headquarters at the Market Hub in Newark, New Jersey. Rutgers University is helping with the search in Newark.

Successful applicants will support the corporate affairs team is planning, research, execution and analysis of internal, external and public affairs campaigns.

“This internship is special because it invites someone inside to explore the magic behind some of the world’s favourite treats, and in doing so, they inherently share what they learn with their families and friends,” the spokesperson said.

“We’re seeking applicants who are passionate about creating better moments in their communities, and we’ll offer them the tools and mentors they need to develop their communications, digital storytelling and program management skills, and expand their network among community engagement leaders in our city.”

Interns will also spend time on the community engagement side of the business, both with the corporate leadership team and through volunteering with the corporate leadership team and through volunteering with the Chicago staff.

Planned activities include building oral care access in underserved communities and sprucing up the riverfront on Goose Island.
