Brand Innovation, a leading supplier of corporate and marketing products situated in Cape Town, South Africa, launched its internship programme in September 2006 after a student from The Cape Peninsula University of Technology approached the company in regards to an internship opportunity.
The primary goal of the internship programme is to equip graduates with practical experience and skills so that they are able to confidently enter the work place. Brand Innovation’s internship is open to graduates that have majored in videography, administration and sales, design, copywriting, and marketing.
"We want the internship programme to make a difference in the lives of young people. South Africa’s unemployment rate has increased to 27.7%, which is having a crippling effect on the economy. At Brand Innovation, we believe that smaller businesses have a great role to play in the strengthening of the economy," says the team at Brand Innovation.
The internship programme has had success over a 12 year period, and many past interns have been employed by the company full-time. Brand Innovation aims to create a ripple effect for businesses in South Africa, large and small, to also employ interns on a constant basis.
By the end of 2023, Brand Innovation aims to have trained over 100 interns in its intern academy.
You can apply for the internship programme by emailing your CV to [email protected].
