If you are in the U.S., get in touch with your local senators and representatives (state and federal) and government leaders. If you give them a really big campaign donation, that is even better.

Try an internship at a radio station.  They're always doing publicity.  Then in college, try to volunteer at your campus radio station doing more publicity.  I knew a woman who leveraged her college radio experience along with her B.A. in Communication into a great job at a top-notch p.r. firm.

I have so functioned for many formal programs.  The way to begin is to take the first step of writing down what you believe are the important points to be covered, organizations to be represented, people to be honored and so forth.  Take it one step at a time.  One suggestion for you would be to look up what was done in some of the previous years on special occasions for your city.  That can give you a goldmine of information and a battle plan, as it were.

well first off, you better be in some sort of sports management or sports law program.  and you better send your resume to every single team at least once.  some mlb teams get close to 1000 apps for every internship

I've always heard good things about Georgetown.  \nHave you done an internship anywhere? That is a great way to get started in politics. And right now many areas are nearing primary time (August), and many campaigns are in full swing and needing volunteers--contact a local candidate and see what they have available.  It's a great way to get your foot in the door, with the chance of future opportunities and for networking.

I think your first step would be to volunteer at one first. Once you get the hang of it you'll have MANY connections to start your own.

go to town hall and see if there are any positions.  If there are apply and let them know what you are trying to do.  Become an intern or something then climb the ladder.  Good luck with it, i hope you achieve all you are trying to.

Here are some ideas that may help:\n\n- Try calling the HR or recruiting department of your target employers and ask them for a list of open internships available then apply directly to the hiring manager.  \n- Ask your professors and TAs for assistance.  If they are in the industry, they should have some contacts.  Networking is usually the best way to get hired.\n- Attend industry shows and ask around for networking opportunities.

I've got an International Studies focusing on Europe BA as well. Most people start with internship experience, particularly if you want to work on the Hill. Depending on your political affiliations there are many organizations that help with job placement and have tons of listings, including politics, PR, and research. If you want more information on Democrat-related job listings, try Democratic Gain or Campaign Corps. I don't know the resources for Republican ones, but I'm sure similar ones exist.

Try to find a company that hires interns for the summer.  Many companies hire interns for projects in which they can learn how to "project manage".  This will be good training as it is hands on.

Get an internship in a Public Affairs, Public Information, or Communications office at a museum, a newspaper, or some big corporation. They don't pay much but are great experience. Do everything they ask you to do cheerfully, even xeroxing, and gradually you will learn about everything in the office and also, it's a great foot in the door. Where I work interns frequently get hired at the end of their internships if everyone likes them and they did a good job. Don't be afraid of hard work. You will also be able to see what kinds of jobs there are and figure out which one you'd like--writing press releases, dealing with calls from the public, answering letters from people who write to the company, etc. Good luck!

I would suggest you check with organizations like the American College of Healthcare Executives, the American Hospital Association, and the American Medical Association as a start

First, find a list of schools in Miami. Then contact their career centers and let them know you have an internship. They'll probably want you to fax them the particulars. It doesn't usually cost you anything to do this - although some schools charge a tiny fee.

Ideally you are already thinking about starting your own business.  What about a non-profit? As long as you want to do that and set up a bus. plan for it you have always an option because... YOU are the solution.  Get ANY job to support yourself in the evenings and volunteer or intern during the day at the jobs you want.  This will get you experience and insight into what it is really like to work in your field.  Good grades and all the trimmings will help you stand out, but EXPERIENCE is what they look for.
