What are the responsibilities and job description for the Public Relations Intern for Fall Semester position at BR Public Relations?
PUBLIC RELATIONS INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY
FOR FALL 2026
From Grammy Award-winning musicians and global pop-up events to pioneering businesses and multi-million-dollar attractions, we help turn our clients into blockbusters—and our interns into stars.
This is an excellent opportunity for a student seeking a for-credit internship with a respected and dynamic national PR agency based in Manhattan. Our firm has been recognized by Expertise.com as one of New York’s top PR agencies since 2017.
We have two for credit internship positions available beginning the week of September 1st through December 13 for students who can commit to working two days per week (excluding Fridays). Interns will work from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
This internship offers hands-on experience in all facets of entertainment and business public relations, as well as the opportunity to work directly with the agency president. Interns will have the opportunity to accompany the agency president and clients to media interviews—including television appearances in studio—which can be a fun behind-the-scenes look at how PR works.
One of our clients is the global pop-up event Diner en Blanc, which is returning to New York this fall. Our agency handles the national and local PR, and on the day of the event we run a Media VIP Lounge at the secret location—providing a unique opportunity to experience high-level event publicity firsthand. Our fall interns will have the unique opportunity to work on Dîner en Blanc, an event that has become a global phenomenon, with more than two million people on wait lists to attend worldwide.
We are seeking a bright, motivated student who is comfortable multitasking, works well as part of a team, and enjoys taking ownership of individual projects. Previous internship experience and some familiarity with the public relations or communications industry are preferred.
Responsibilities include:
• Assisting with live events, including media check-in and interaction

• Researching and developing influencer outreach lists
