Prevail PR Employment Opportunities & Cal Poly Internships

Prevail PR Employment Opportunities

As a Cal Poly grad, I started Prevail PR sharing the university’s “Learn By Doing” philosophy and believe the best training is on-the-job training. I also know how hard it is to find a decent internship in San Luis Obispo County that allows you to not only fulfill your graduation requirements, but actually learn skills that will shorten your road to success and use for the rest of your life.

I also believe in a pay-for-performance model, and unlike most companies, Prevail PR actually practices what we preach. All of our core services have the buyer’s best interest at heart and either provide money-back-guarantees or at least a minimum level of satisfaction they must reach before they pay. People should get paid by how much value they provide, not by how many hours they put in. As such, all positions at Prevail PR are currently paid by performance – including internships.

What does this mean?

It means that when you do your marketing, journalism, public relations or business management internship with Prevail PR, you:

Get to stay in SLO instead of having to go to LA or SF…

Get your required internship credits…

Get to learn skills that will be of use to you, even in 10 years…

Get to experience life on the job…

Get to work your own schedule and can even work from home…

Get to make valuable connections with other businesses…

Get to keep the job for as long as you want if you are successful

And last but definitely not least, you…

Get to keep up to 50% of any revenue generated as the result of the work you do for us!

I don’t know about you, but that sounds A LOT better than my internship. Shoot, I’m not even in the same industry anymore. Do your internship at Prevail PR and I can pretty much guarantee you won’t be saying the same thing 5 years out of college.

Please read the description for each internship and then if you are interested, fill out the form below and we’ll set up a time to meet. There will be no resumes required for these positions. The only requirements are that you go to Cal Poly, you actually need an internship and that you have passion for learning and the dedication to get things done (being motivated to make some money for getting results doesn’t hurt either).
