About Our Internship Program:

Our Summer 2026 internship cycle takes place between June 1, 2026 – August 21, 2026. 

This is a paid, hybrid educational internship. Our internship program runs for 12 weeks and provides our interns a hands-on learning experience unparalleled in the classroom. As an intern, you will report directly to a supervisor, explore your career field of interest, gain in-house agency experience, acquire new skills for resume building, and establish vital career networks and mentors. 

Summary of Position:

As a Concept Studio Intern at NVE, you will gain hands-on experience working across both copy and art direction—helping bring brand experiences to life from concept through execution.

This is not a passive internship. You’ll contribute to real client work, collaborate with a multidisciplinary creative team, and participate in the same studio rituals that shape our ideas and output.

It’s an opportunity to develop your craft, sharpen your point of view, and experience what it’s like to work inside a fast-paced, culture-driven creative agency.

What You’ll Work On:

• Contribute to big, bold, breakthrough ideas for brand experiences and campaigns
• Assist in developing clear and engaging copy for brand experiences – this could include everything from a headline for an experience, to social posts and  digital content
• Assist in developing visual expressions of creative ideas – this could include everything from mood boards to 2D comps
• Contribute to brainstorming sessions and creative discussions
• Conduct research on cultural trends, insights, and emerging tools (including AI) to inform creative work
• Collaborate with designers, creatives, and cross-functional partners to bring ideas to life
• Participate in internal reviews, critiques, and studio working sessions
• Support the team across multiple projects in a fast-paced environment

What You’ll Learn:

• How to translate brand ideas into physical and digital experiences
• How creative concepts evolve from early thinking to real-world execution
• How to work within a collaborative creative team across disciplines (design, concept, production, strategy)
• How to present work, receive feedback, and iterate quickly
• How to navigate real client timelines, constraints, and expectations
• How emerging tools—including AI—can support and expand the creative process
• What it means to build work that is rooted in culture—not just aesthetics

Who You Are:

• You are currently pursuing (or recently completed) a degree in design,  marketing or related creative fields
• You have a portfolio that shows your creative thinking and creative potential (school or personal work is welcome)
• You are curious, proactive, and excited to learn by doing
• You have an interest in exploring emerging creative tools and technologies, including AI
• You are open to feedback and eager to grow your skills
• You bring a point of view—but also a collaborative mindset
• You embody NVE’s core values of Ingenuity, Inclusivity, Instinct & Independence.
