Digital/Social Analytics & Insights Graduate Spring Internship

Golin is seeking a Digital Analytics & Insights Intern to join our Dallas office. This is an awesome opportunity for anyone who loves to solve problems, make strategic recommendations and consult on digital campaigns to join Golin and have an immediate impact.
Analytics is embedded in every client team, conducting research that impacts campaign planning, tracking events in real time, providing ideas around creative insights (e.g. the ‘why’ behind what makes a certain picture, copy or topic work), and guidance on how to configure budget for paid campaigns. The ideal candidate will have an entrepreneurial mindset, be analytically curious, and have a passion for understanding what makes a brand and its audience tick on digital channels. This is an awesome opportunity for anyone who loves to solve problems, make strategic recommendations and consult on digital campaigns to join Golin and have an immediate impact.
Don’t have the technical skills? We can teach you. This role isn’t about knowing the back-end setup of Facebook or having your Google Analytics Certification (though it’s awesome if you do!). It’s about connecting the dots between something you saw in Twitter Analytics, a social listening finding from Instagram and a trend from your favorite brand on social -- then applying this to a strategic recommendation for Golin clients. From there, you have to sell it. In a lot of ways, the internal Golin team is both your ally and your client. You have to make them believe in the recommendations that you are making. This can take the form of a quick, but well-informed email, a meeting in the hallway or a formal presentation deck with cool visualizations which help you tell your story. That’s why our ideal candidate not only has an interest in how social media campaigns tick, but at the core, is a great marketer and communicator.
Golin is a progressive public relations agency designed to reach the profoundly diverse market. Inclusion is a core value for Golin and we are focused on establishing a culture that is intentionally inclusive, potently diverse and uncompromisingly equitable. Our expertise ranges from brand-building and cutting-edge digital content, to corporate reputation, healthcare advocacy and measurement. Golin aligns earned-first, data-driven creative with the customer journey through our collaborative G4 Model to deliver maximum impact for clients. Our roster includes many of the largest CPG, retail, food, technology and consumer service companies in the world.  
Our paid, full-time remote internship runs from January through June and is designed to give you the authentic experience of working in an agency.
